Ellie Holcomb's New Christmas EP "Sing: Christmas Songs" Releases Today!
Acclaimed singer, songwriter and author Ellie Holcomb's brand new EP, Sing: Christmas Songs, releases today! The 6-song set accompanies her latest children's book, Sounding Joy, which was released earlier last month. Featuring 3 original songs, the lead single "Sounding Joy" is already a favorite among fans. Holcomb has also included her take on traditional carols and festive favorites, especially her extra fun version of "Jingle Bells."
"My book and album were inspired by the song 'Joy to the World,' and it's an invitation to sing about the hope we have because God put skin on and moved into the neighborhood," shares Ellie Holcomb. "I hope these songs will invoke dancing in the kitchen while you bake Christmas cookies and storytelling of the very best kind. I hope it will help kids ponder what joy sounds like and the reason we can have joy no matter what we're facing."
The Christmas book explores the question of what joy sounds like as the reader travels through beautiful Christmastime scenes in the board book, which is illustrated by Laura Ramos. Likewise Sing: Christmas Songs is an invitation to sing about the hope of the season and features classic and original Christmas songs. Holcomb's sweet and lovely celebration of Christmas encourages each reader and listener, young and old, to lift up their voice and repeat the sounding joy!
Holcomb continues, "Joy sounds like the voices of my friends and family in my home while I'm preparing a meal. It sounds like my kids singing happily in their room together or like carols and bells and laughter and water running. It sounds like It's A Wonderful Life playing in the background and Charlie Brown Christmas and Linus reading the most wonderful of stories that came true in real life... the magic of knowing we are never alone, and of hearing that message ring true over and over again in all the songs we sing at Christmas. We have a reason to sing, a reason to hope. Love gets the final word. Glad tidings of GREAT JOY!"
