With Thanksgiving in the rear view and December in full swing, the countdown to Christmas is officially on. And thanks to a slew of artists of all genres, there are tons of new tunes to soundtrack the 2024 holiday season.
While some stars covered holiday classics, most tried their hand at crafting festive originals, from Ava Max's upbeat "1 Wish" to Conan Gray's melancholy "Holidays." Some even offered full projects, including a double album from Dan + Shay and a third holiday installment from beloved Philadelphia Eagles trio The Philly Specials.
Even a handful of "American Idol" alums got in the spirit this year. Jennifer Hudson and Gabby Barrett released their first holiday albums, The Gift of Love and Carols & Candlelight; Clay Aiken offered his first in 20 years with Christmas Bells Are Ringing; Ruben Studdard and Jordin Sparks delivered festive EPs My Favorite Holiday and Joy; and Kelly Clarkson added a couple of new tracks to her 2021 holiday set with When Christmas Comes Around… Again.
As you deck the halls and finish up your holiday shopping, listen to 50 new songs from Michael Bublé and Carly Pearce, David Bisbal, Little Big Town, Natlie Jane, Brett Eldredge, and many more.
