My new single “Winter Wonderland” is out now.
I’ve always loved the Peanuts cartoons by Charles Schultz. I especially feel a connection to Snoopy — I have an ankle tattoo of Snoopy dancing that represents pure joy & reminds me to dance, too. So, every year since I was a kid, I always watched “A Charlie Brown Christmas” on TV & loved the music so much, the unexpectedly jazzy score by Vince Guaraldi. And the moment when the kids all start to sing “Christmas Time Is Here” with their high, little-kid voices is so tender and sweet — I was completely inspired when Mike suggested I do my own version. The song has such a beautiful, kind of wistful message — there’s a yearning for people to be as loving all year round as they are during the holiday season. So it felt like a good choice for the turbulent times we’re living through right now. And our arrangement, how the band plays — it’s all so languid and lush. I’m very happy with how this turned out.
