Martina shared: "It is a Christmas album, it is called It's The Holiday Season, and...you know, I made a classic Christmas
album about 20 years ago called White Christmas. And it's just been one of
those records; when I made it, I wanted it to be the kind of record that really
just stands the test of time. So we made it in the old fashioned kind of way
with a big orchestra and it's very
lush. And I wanted to do the same kind of thing, meaning that I wanted it to
stand the test of time with this new album. But we did it in a little bit
different way. So, we cut with a big band. An orchestra, but also horns, and a
lot of it's kind of swing. It's kind of in the same...I would say it's in the
same style as the old Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald Christmas
records. It's really, really fun! It's infectious, like, it's just so much fun
to listen to! It makes me want to take ballroom dancing lessons, to be honest,
because I want to be able to dance to it.
Each stop on the tour has incorporated the amazing talents of local orchestras as McBride delivers her jazzy take on everyone’s favorite holiday standards and her classic hits.
McBride also treated viewers of the 92nd Annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade to her rendition of “Most Wonderful Time of Year” atop the Balsam Hill float. She was also on hand at this year’s Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree Lightingevent where she performed “Winter Wonderland” standing in front of the New York spectacle that draws thousands of visitors to the city from across the globe.
Up next, fans can catch McBride on “ Live! with Kelly and Ryan” on Tuesday, December 11th where she will be in the kitchen showing the hosts a few of her favorite recipes that are perfect for holiday entertaining. She will return to the show on Monday, December 24th for their special Christmas show where she will perform.
