Chris Isaak, known for his smoldering vocals, released Everybody Knows It's Christmas (Sun Records/Virgin UMG) on October 14th with a vinyl edition coming on November 19th. The album features an original track called "Almost Christmas." The album will be supported by in-store vinyl signings and a tour. The Everybody Knows It's Christmas Tour comes to Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall on Thursday, December 8 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets go on sale Friday, October 21 at 10 a.m.
Everybody Knows It's Christmas is Isaak's second career Christmas album since his chart-topping 2004 Christmas on Warner Bros. Records. The album will feature 13 tracks of originals and covers, all paying tribute to the iconic Sun Records' aesthetic.
"The holidays are such a special time for me and the pandemic left us all so isolated. I felt like a holiday album was a great opportunity to bring people together this year. I had so much fun making this album and designing the cover," says Isaak. "It was a joy to work with Dave Cobb and we worked in his iconic RCA studio where John Prine had placed a year-round Christmas tree to keep the holidays alive. I loved that idea so I'm going to keep that spirit alive."
