The track was co-written and co-produced with Joel Jaffe.
The powerhouse singer releases her first holiday co-write "Christmas, You and Me." The track, co-written and co-produced with her trusty producer Joel Jaffe features a lush vocal approach and a familiar classic style.
"I love the holidays and Christmas is one of my favorites. It's such a special time of the year - a time where, all over the globe, there's merriment and good cheer. People actually try to reflect on peace, love and goodwill. So the holidays were coming up and I heard this melody in my head and thought how lovely it is to share moments with that special person is in your life. Then the words came - I sang it to Joel Jaffe, my producer and songwriting partner. He loved it, made some changes, added his music magic with his guitar and piano by Eamonn Flynn and "Christmas You and Me" became our first song together."
The track features several top notch bay area musicians including drummer Ed McClary, bass player Marc Levine, Eamonn Flynn on piano, and Joel Jaffe on guitar and background vocals.
