The 2020 holiday season will sparkle a little brighter with the release of Carrie Underwood’s first Christmas album, My Gift. Announced Monday afternoon (7/20), the singer revealed that the project would officially arrive on September 25, 2020.

“I’ve always wanted to make a Christmas album and it’s been a long time coming,” shared the Oklahoma native. “I knew this would be my next music project after wrapping my tour last year, and I think it’s turned out to be the perfect time for an album like this, in this period of such personal and spiritual reflection. For me, it’s more important than ever to focus on the true meaning of Christmas in a project like this. Even though it has been a tough year for all of us, sometimes I feel like the greatest realizations can be inspired by the most difficult times, and make us more grateful for the things we do have and for what truly matters.”

My Gift will feature a slew of holiday classics as well as some entirely new material. The full track listing for the album will be released in the coming weeks.

Teaming up with Underwood on the project was a slew of collaborators, including GRAMMY Award-winning producer, mixer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Greg Wells. Wells produced and arranged the record. His past work includes projects with Adele, Celine Dion, Keith Urban, P!nk and The Greatest Showman Soundtrack. Additionally, arranger, composer, and conductor David Campbell, with credits that include Linda Ronstadt, Beyoncé, Justin Timberlake, Barbra Streisand, Michael Jackson, Josh Groban, and his son Beck, led the orchestra featured on My Gift.

Pre-orders of the My Gift CD, with exclusive merchandise, are available here. Fans can also pick up the record on vinyl beginning October 30, with pre-orders beginning soon.
