Christmas Album Coming from Tracy Lawrence

Tracy Lawrence is releasing his first Christmas album this fall. The as-yet-untitled disc will include several traditional holiday songs as well as a few originals. Tracy says that while the recording of the album was pretty simple, finding songs was not. “I did weeks of song search going through the usual piles and piles and piles of Christmas songs to cut three new things and trying to decide what standards that I wanted to cut … sitting in the office with everybody having to listen to Christmas music for three or four hours a day when I was home was pretty taxing through May and June.” In spite of recording in late spring and early summer, Tracy says, “When we got in the studio we put a Christmas tree up and we decorated the whole thing and cranked the air conditioner down. Over at Ocean Way [recording studio] it’s pretty moody in there anyway. There’s not really a lot of light, so it was actually easier.” Tracy’s current single from his album For The Love, “Til I Was A Daddy Too,” is currently climbing the charts.
