Larry Gatlin & The Gatlin Brothers New Holiday Album "We Say Merry Christmas"

The holidays are quickly approaching and I have to say, I am excited. One thing that I love most about the holiday season is the music. For all of you fellow Christmas music lovers, this year Larry Gatlin & The Gatlin Brothers will be releasing their first set of all new Christmas music in over 10 years! Details about the album, We Say Merry Christmas, and how you can snag a copy for yourself, are below. Merry Christmas!

Larry Gatlin & The Gatlin Brothers To Release We Say Merry Christmas

This holiday season, country legends Larry Gatlin & the Gatlin Brothers will deck the halls with an all-new Christmas album. On Black Friday, November 25, brothers Larry, Rudy and Steve will release We Say Merry Christmas (Sony RED), the group’s first holiday album in more than 10 years.

“There is no better music than the sweet sounds of Christmas songs not only about the great season, but of the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ,” says Steve Gatlin. The 2-disc album contains 19 songs and is chock full of classic Christmas standards including, “Silver Bells,” “Silent Night,” “Winter Wonderland,” “Joy To The World” and more. The collection also includes several original holiday songs penned by Larry Gatlin.

Larry adds, “We Say Merry Christmas. Any questions?” Digital pre-sales on iTunes and Amazon start on October 28. Early bird shoppers who participate in the pre-sale will immediately be able to download two songs ahead of the release date (“Joy To The World” and “Winter Wonderland”). Fans will also be able to purchase the new album at the brothers’ live concerts at Gaylord Opryland’s A Country Christmas in Nashville, Tennessee. The daily performances kick-off on November 11 with the Gatlin Brothers performing 38 live dinner shows leading up to Christmas. Held in the iconic 2,882-room hotel’s Tennessee Ballroom, each show will include a four-course meal prepared by Gaylord Opryland’s award-winning chefs. Tickets are on-sale now and may be purchased online at ChristmasAtGaylordOpryland.com.
