Brett Eldredge Ready to Sing Until He Can’t Sing Anymore in Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade
Eldredge is back for a second go-around and this time, he's got music from his own Christmas album, Glow, to sing for fans.
It’s almost time to wrap yourself up with a warm, soft blanket, slip on some slippers and spend the day in pajamas because Thanksgiving is around the corner! While the turkey is cooking away, thousands of families around the country will sit together to watch the 90th Annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade take place live from New York City.
For Brett Eldredge, this year will mark his second time performing in the Big Apple for the parade that features hundreds of balloons and floats as they make their way down Central Park West to Broadway. His first trip go around in the iconic parade was pretty special for the “Wanna Be That Song” singer as his family got to partake in the festivities.
“I did the Macys Parade not too long ago and it was when I was first getting started. I was so excited to be in the parade. I got there and it was so cold,” Eldredge recalled recently to Sounds Like Nashville and other media recently. “I was like ‘this is freezing, but when I get on that float, I’m going to be running with adrenaline by just millions of people up and down the streets,’ and that’s what happened. I got on that float and all these little kids dressed up as cookies and all this crazy stuff, and they’re all cold, but everyone was just so happy. We just had a lot of fun with it. It ended up being a memory that I got to share with my family.”
Now, Eldredge is back for a second go-around and this time, he’s got music from his own Christmas album, Glow, to sing for fans.
“And then this year, getting asked back to do it again, and now I have a Christmas album, that’s the time that everyone really starts listening to Christmas music, and what a perfect way than to hop on a float and sing Christmas songs until I can’t sing them anymore,” he shared. “And then celebrate Thanksgiving with my family in New York City.”
The 90th Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade will take place on Thursday, Nov. 24, airing live on NBC. Other artists appearing in the parade include Kelsea Ballerini, Easton Corbin, Maddie & Tae, Daya, Sarah McLachlan, Michelle Carter, Laurie Hernandez, Jacob Whitesides, Fitz and the Tantrums, De La Soul, Chloe and Halle, and Aloe Blacc.
