“A Very Special Christmas Vol. 7″ To Feature Young Country Artists
Kellie Pickler, Carrie Underwood, Carter Twins, Gloriana, and Miley Cyrus are among many young artists to be featured on the latest edition of A Very Special Christmas, which features original recordings of new and traditional Christmas songs. Proceeds from the album benefit the Special Olympics.
Artists such as Sheryl Crow, Tom Petty, and Bon Jovi have contributed to the series in previous years, but this year the producers of the series wanted to showcase young talent.
“This is a fantastic Christmas record created by and for a new generation that wants to make the world a better place,” Timothy Shriver, chairman and CEO of Special Olympics, said in a press release.
The series launched in 1987 and since then it had raised more than $100 million dollars for the Special Olympics. A Very Special Christmas Vol. 7 will be released November 24.
