Happy Holidays, honeybees! Itβs officially that time of the year when we cozy up near the fireplace and listen to our favorite holiday releases of the season. This year, weβre starting the season with some really great names β Meghan Trainor and Leon Bridges, to name a few. We canβt wait to hear what our faves have in store for us, including classic Christmas song covers and new original songs weβre definitely adding to our holiday time playlists.
Here are some new holiday songs, EPs, and albums weβve been loving so far this season:
The Gift Of Love (Extended Holiday Edition) β Jennifer Hudson
Jennifer Hudson singing Christmas songs is only right. The Gift Of Love features all of our favorite classic Christmas songs from βJingle Bellsβ to βWinter Wonderlandβ and βGo Tell It On The Mountain.β Can Jennifer herself come Christmas caroling at our front door this year!?

βGifts For Meβ β Meghan Trainor
Meghan Trainor brings the ultimate pop-girl anthems to the holiday season! βGifts For Meβ is certainly a gift for us this year. If Barbie put on a sparkling red dress and grabbed the mic under the mistletoe, it would be Meghan Trainor. If you need an excuse to buy yourself a little gift this season, let Meghan inspire you to do so with this new song. We know it helped lift our spirits!
βFor me, the holidays have always been about joy, sparkle, and celebrating the people we love. βGifts for Meβ is my fun, festive way of spreading that energy. Itβs also a reminder to treat yourself a little, too! I hope it brings everyone the same cozy, happy vibes I felt while making it with my girls Emily Bear and Nicole βKOLEβ Cohen.β

My Only Wish β David Archuleta
Weβve been waiting for David Archuleta to release a full original Christmas EP! On My Only Wish, weβre getting five holiday songs from βSleigh Rideβ to βWinter In The Air.β Another gift? Jordan Sparks is featured, and with that dazzling voice, who can resist a listen? We certainly cannot!
“For the My Only Wish EP, I wanted to write holiday music that was more in the space of where Iβm at in life. I wanted it to be fun and flirty and to make people just feel good. Iβm really really happy with how these new songs turned out and I feel like it will be a whole new yet familiar experience for fans who have always enjoyed my Christmas music and shows.”

βThis Christmas Iβm Coming Homeβ And βA Merry Black Christmasβ β Leon Bridges
No matter what, weβll always be listening to Leon Bridges. If weβre happy, sad, anxious, or even just in need of a little holiday mood boost. His latest drop, βThis Christmas Iβm Coming Home,β opens with a signature piano solo, followed by the gorgeous vocals of Norah Jones. These two singers together have our ears melting in delight! Double it up with βA Merry Black Christmasβ that also gives fans Leonβs gorgeous raspy voice over holiday drums.

βSkip My Houseβ β Coco Jones
Santa, please do not skip Coco Jonesβ house this year! She needs all the gifts after giving us βSkip My House,β a sultry R&B holiday track. If youβre (unfortunately) breaking up with someone this holiday season, βSkip My Houseβ is definitely going to be your vibe. We donβt need any mistletoe or nice lists this year; all we need is our own company and a warm mug of Coco!
