Ingrid Michaelson, Ingrid Michaelson - Ingrid Michaelson's Songs for the Season (Deluxe Edition) (Album), music, Musica

Ingrid Michaelson has released her holiday project, Ingrid Michaelson’s Songs For The Season – Deluxe Edition. Originally released in October 2018, the record’s new deluxe edition of her festive Ingrid Michaelson’s Songs For The Season features five new tracks – including a previously released single “Christmas Valentine” featuring Jason Mraz, that has since amassed over 45 million streams.

“When I released my first Christmas album in 2018, I already knew there would one day be a deluxe. And here we are! Anyone who knows me knows that I start celebrating Christmas in September and I cherish this time of the year so very much,” Michaelson explains. “I have added three classics and two originals (one with another self-proclaimed Christmas lover Zooey Deschanel) to create an even greater festive experience! It was very important to me to keep everything in this vintage/nostalgic world.”

The deluxe edition includes “Merry Christmas, Happy New Year (Feat. Zooey Deschanel),” with the two vocalists sharing their favorite things about the season over bright jingling bells. Plus, there are the Andrews Sisters inspired rendition of “Winter Wonderland,” a dazzling retro rendition featuring carolling sweet three-part harmonies.

Michaelson says, “I don’t think you’ll meet someone who loves Christmas more than I do, and it is the same thing for Christmas music. There’s just too much music to choose from.”

Ingrid Michaelson’s Songs For The Season – Deluxe Edition will be available as an Amazon exclusive vinyl. This limited-edition Amazon exclusive deluxe two-disc vinyl features a digital download card with two unreleased demos “December” and “Happy, Happy Christmas.” The vinyl also includes a recipe card for Ingrid’s Favorite Brown Butter Blondies.
