Forget presents and stockings, teen country artist Bailey James only needs snow — and perhaps a lost love — to complete her Christmas. She has released her first original holiday single, But If It Snows, which was sent to country radio and is now available on iTunes and all digital retailers.
Written by James, Julie Downs
and Steve O’Brien and produced by O’Brien, this bluesy holiday country tune is
sure to put even the biggest Grinch into the Christmas mood. The
tune’s groovy, soulful air showcases James’ crystal-clear falsetto and
impressive vocal range, while her lyrics weave a picture-perfect holiday scene.
“This is my favorite time of year,” says the 15-year-old. “I’m originally from
Pennsylvania where we always experience really cold, snowy
winters. For me, Christmas wouldn’t be the same without snow.”

In between the almost constant travel, James
spent hours in the studio writing and recording brand new music for 2019,
including a special song she wrote for her successful Kickstarter campaign.
Her Won’t Be Silent Suicide Awareness Campaign raised money to produce Won’t Be Silent, shoot an official music video and
record a public service announcement with a very uplifting message. “At 15, I
am a voice for other teenagers. I provide them someone who listens and has
lived a similar struggle. Awareness is the first step in the prevention of
suicide. Please don’t be silent!” Stay tuned for this and more music to be
released early 2019.
"I’ve liked everything she’s ever put out
so far, and this continues her winning ways…she’s a master chef as a singer . .

renowned music critic.
