"I am very very excited and so grateful to Jim Caruso from Birdland, who made the call to me initially. I love Christmas music and holiday music and I knew I could put it together pretty quickly," said de Haas. "I'm really looking forward to sharing it and sharing my new song, "Let Me Carry You This Christmas."

Aside from his concert, Darius has been busy throughout the pandemic as one of the founding members of Black Theatre United. "Black Theatre United was an initiative started by the wonderful Audra McDonald and laChanze- they were communing in the wake of the horrible killing of George Floyd," he explained. "We're trying to have a voice from the black theatre community that's addressing how we are still in such a place in 2020. It opens up a whole maelstrom of things- what systemic racism and institutionalized racism is and what do we need to do to tackle that and dismantle it?"
