Alicia Witt Releases New Holiday Album

Known for her role in the recent thriller Longlegs and her roles in numerous beloved Hallmark Christmas films, for which she has been dubbed by fans as the “Queen of Christmas,” Alicia Witt has released her latest holiday album, I Think I’m Spending Christmas with You, out now. The self-produced project, which can now be heard on Sirius XM, brings together the talents of Witt alongside Grammy award-winning John Paul White of The Civil Wars, Matthew Perryman Jones, and Mandy Barnett. The nostalgic, yet fresh, sounding album includes moving renditions of Christmas classics like “O Holy Night,” “The First Noel,” “I’ll Be Home for Christmas,” and nine original tracks.

“For me, Christmas is a time of year that is full of so many emotions - nostalgia, love, magic, tradition, and truth. I hope you can feel the energy and love we all felt while working on this one as you listen, and I truly hope it helps bring the Christmas spirit into your world and becomes the soundtrack for your holiday season - this year and for many years to come.” -Alicia Witt

A classically trained former competitive pianist, Alicia’s music has been described as ‘sharply personal, boldly melodic pop originals in the Carole King/Billy Joel vein’ (Philadelphia Inquirer).

Her over 100 credits include Netflix’s 2022 hit I Care A Lot; Orange Is The New Black; The Walking Dead; ABC’s Nashville; FX’s Justified; Twin Peaks (2017 and 1990); Two Weeks Notice; Mr Holland’s Opus; The Sopranos; Cybill; Urban Legend; and Fun, for which she received the first acting award given at the Sundance Film Festival (1994), and an Independent Spirit Award nomination.
