Once upon a time, in a small town called Joyville, there lived a man named Mr. Christmas. He was known to be a jolly and kind-hearted individual who brought happiness and cheer to everyone around him. Ever since he was a young boy, Mr. Christmas had a special connection with magic. As the holiday season approached, Mr.
For some artists, a holiday album is little more than an afterthought. But not Platinum-selling recording artist Brett Eldredge, who released the brand-new album Mr. Christmas today ( LISTEN HERE ). Eldredge believes that Christmas songs capture the light in all of us, letting it shine for a few months each winter, and with Mr. Christmas he embraces a calling to help bring that light out like never before.
With four acclaimed studio albums, six number one singles and awards from the Country Music Association, ASCAP, BMI and more, the Illinois native may not seem like the type to feel pulled in by a Christmastime calling but it fits like a perfectly tailored tux. Eldredge reenlisted producers Rob Mounsey and Jay Newland, who worked with him on his celebrated 2016 Christmas album, Glow , and in the Spring of 2021 returned to a massive New York City studio normally used for orchestral scores, rocking a different tux each day, like full on, he says with a laugh.
As the holiday season approached, Mr. Christmas would decorate his house with twinkling lights, colorful ornaments, and beautiful wreaths. However, it was the magical touch that he added to his decorations that made them truly extraordinary.

Christmas Arrives Early This Year with the Brand-New Holiday Album From Brett Eldredge, Mr. Christmas, Available Everywhere Today
For some artists, a holiday album is little more than an afterthought. But not Platinum-selling recording artist Brett Eldredge, who released the brand-new album Mr. Christmas today ( LISTEN HERE ). Eldredge believes that Christmas songs capture the light in all of us, letting it shine for a few months each winter, and with Mr. Christmas he embraces a calling to help bring that light out like never before. “I really think some of the last of the magic left in this world is in Christmas music,” Eldredge says. “There’s a lot of joy in this record – even more than the first in some ways – and I wanted to tip a hat to where I started … but also take it to the soulful side of my music. The world is the world, and life comes at you like it does, but I hope you find some joy in this music. I hope it softens life a little bit and puts a smile on someone’s face when they need it. If it does, I’ve done my job.” With four acclaimed studio albums, six number one singles and awards from the Country Music Association, ASCAP, BMI and more, the Illinois native may not seem like the type to feel pulled in by a Christmastime calling – but it fits like a perfectly tailored tux. Mr. Christmas features 11 warm, inviting tunes steeped in the magic Eldredge has long admired. Mixing well-known holiday classics with eclectic, lesser-appreciated tunes and two custom-made Christmas creations, Mr. Christmas is the embodiment of Eldredge’s holiday wonder. Co-written during the pandemic with Ross Copperman, the title track “Mr. Christmas” may as well be the manifesto for Eldredge’s Christmas calling. With its effortless charm and a sound as comfortable as a crackling fire, it reveals the purpose behind the project, and stands shoulder to shoulder with the classics. “Feels Like Christmas” is another soulful new original also written by Eldredge. Full of hope and the comforting traditions he loves so much, it both embodies the excitement Eldredge truly feels when Christmas comes around and celebrates the source of joy we all need these days. The team also coaxed fresh energy and booming vocal glee from beloved tunes like “It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year.” They took a swinging run through “Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer,” and added blasting horns, commanding presence and some sly self-assurance to “Cool Yule” – previously covered by everyone from Louis Armstrong to the Brian Setzer Orchestra. “Merry Christmas Baby” revels in early-rock exhilaration, and still others like “O Come All Ye Faithful” tribute the reason for the season. Far from a sleepy soundtrack, the album is defined by a bright and brassy sound paired with his signature soulful vocal that ranges from strutting confidence to quiet reverence – all with class and creative whimsy. Eldredge reenlisted producers Rob Mounsey and Jay Newland, who worked with him on his celebrated 2016 Christmas album, Glow, and in the Spring of 2021 returned to a massive New York City studio normally used for orchestral scores, “rocking a different tux each day, like full on,” he says with a laugh. It all adds up to a reminder that magic does exist – if only for a short time each year – and the release of Mr. Christmas welcomes that time once again. To celebrate its return, Eldredge is also bringing back his beloved Glow LIVE holiday tour beginning this November. A feel-good annual tradition for many, the tour will stop in major cities across the country, including back-to-back nights in Nashville, Boston, Chicago and New York City (for a full list of dates, visit bretteldredge.com).

Larkin Love these christmas albums, will keep getting them every year!! Favorite track: The Holiday Dream.
Every year, people from all over would come to admire his house and experience the enchantment that surrounded it. It was said that Mr. Christmas had a secret workshop in his attic, where he created all the magical elements for his decorations. He would spend hours painstakingly crafting snowflakes that could dance in the air or creating singing ornaments that could fill the room with melodies. The magic that he infused into these creations brought a sense of wonder and awe to everyone who encountered them. Children from the town would eagerly wait for the first snowfall, as it was rumored that Mr. Christmas had the power to make snowflakes fall in different shapes and sizes. On the day the first snowflake of the season fell, kids would gather outside his house, hoping to witness the magic. And sure enough, the snowflakes would start falling, each one more beautiful than the last, enchanting everyone in its path. Mr. Christmas' magic extended beyond his decorations. He had a special ability to bring joy to those who were feeling down. With a wave of his hand and a warm smile, he could turn a frown into a laugh and a bad day into a memorable one. His presence alone could lift the spirits of even the grumpiest of souls. The townspeople cherished Mr. Christmas and considered themselves fortunate to have someone like him in their community. He was not just a symbol of the holiday spirit but a reminder of the magic that exists in the world if one is willing to see it. His ability to follow the magic inspired others to open their hearts and embrace the wonder that surrounded them. Throughout the year, Mr. Christmas would continue to spread joy and magic, never missing an opportunity to make someone's day brighter. His acts of kindness and his belief in the power of magic left an indelible mark on the hearts of those who encountered him. He taught the town the true meaning of the holiday season, reminding them that it is the magic of love, kindness, and joy that truly makes it the most wonderful time of the year. And so, Mr. Christmas continued to follow the magic, year after year, bringing happiness and enchantment to all those he encountered in the town of Joyville. His legacy lived on long after he was gone, reminding people to hold onto the magic in their lives and to keep the spirit of love and joy alive in their hearts..
Reviews for "Finding Joy in the Little Things: Mr. Christmas' Simple Pleasures"
1. John - 2/5
I was really excited to read "Mr. Christmas Follow the Magic" because I heard so many good things about it. Unfortunately, I was quite disappointed. The story felt very predictable and lacked originality. I also found the language to be too simplistic, even for a children's book. The illustrations were nice, but they couldn't make up for the weak storyline. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone looking for a captivating and unique Christmas story.
2. Mary - 1/5
I'm sorry, but "Mr. Christmas Follow the Magic" was just not my cup of tea. The writing style was very choppy and disjointed, making it difficult for me to follow the plot. The characters were not well-developed, and the dialogue felt forced and unrealistic. Additionally, the book contained numerous grammar and punctuation errors, which further hindered my reading experience. I can appreciate the effort that went into creating this story, but it fell far short of my expectations. I'm afraid I cannot recommend it.
3. Sarah - 2/5
"Mr. Christmas Follow the Magic" had an interesting concept, but it failed to deliver a compelling story. The pacing was off, with some parts dragging on for too long, while others felt rushed and underdeveloped. I also found the writing to be overly simplistic, lacking depth and nuance. The characters were one-dimensional and lacked complexity. The book had potential, but in the end, it fell flat. I wouldn't discourage others from giving it a try, but personally, it wasn't a satisfying read for me.
