Grammy nominated R&B/soul singer Ledisi is here for you this Christmas. Pumped for the Holidays, Ledisi says “Everywhere thereâs an air of Christmas joy, itâs that once a year, when the worldâs sincere and youâd like to find a way to show the things that words canât say.” Titled “It’s Christmas,” Ledisi’s new holiday themed album features twelve yuletide standards including “I’ll Go,” “What A Wonderful World,” “Silent Night,” and “Please Come Home for Christmas,” all with the “Alright” singer’s signature style. “I hope it will be something that people will pull out and listen to every year,” says the singer who recorded most of the album live. One of the songs, co-written by Ledisi, âBe There For Christmasâ is a cut with a âback-in-the-dayâ flavor. In fact, Ledisi co-wrote four songs for the set including the title track, co-written and produced by the legendary George Duke. “Itâs Christmas” also features trumpeter Christian Scott (on an unforgettable version of Louis Armstrongâs âWhat A Wonderful Worldâ) and Grammy Award-winning blues favorite Kebâ Moâ (on the soul-flavored, Walter Kent-penned âPlease Come Home For Christmasâ). Ledisi’s “It’s Christmas” is in stores now.
