Thomas Rhett just released a new Christmas EP titled Merry Christmas Y’all. The four-song collection features his versions of “Winter Wonderland,” “Most Wonderful Time of the Year,” “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas” and “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas.” For Thomas, it was a fun way to do something a little different musically.
“We put a couple Christmas songs out a couple years ago, and it was so fun to do. It was so fun to tap into just a different lane besides what we normally do. And in this go around, specifically for these four songs, I wanted to kinda go with the big band approach. I love listening to old Bing Crosby, Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra Christmas songs. All in their own right were kinda challenging, and it kinda changed my brain to think differently, and gave me a way deeper appreciation for all the classic singers that used to sing like, in the room with the strings and the brass. And a really, really fun project to make, and somethin’ that I would love to do again.”
