Rob Thomas is the latest musician to announce an upcoming Christmas album this year. The Matchbox Twenty singer is no stranger to holiday releases; Thomas recorded “I Believe in Santa Claus” last year and had a festive hit on his hands back in 2005 with “New York City Christmas”.
This month Thomas will drop Something About Christmas Time, which is currently available for pre-order, and will feature classic holiday covers originally sung by Bryan Adams and Ray Charles as well as original songs, and guest appearances from other talented singersโincluding: Ingrid Michaelson, Brad Paisley, and gospel singer Bebe Winans.

When I think of voices that are built for the warmth of the holiday season, Norah Jones is definitely a singer that comes to mind, which is what makes it all that more sweeter than the 9-time GRAMMY-winning singer, songwriter, and pianist is releasing her first holiday album, I Dream Of Christmas.
“Iโve always loved Christmas music but never had the inclination to make a holiday album until now,” Norah said in an official statement. “Last year I found myself listening to James Brownโs Funky Christmas and Elvisโs Christmas Album on Sundayโs during lockdown for a sense of comfort. In January 2021, I started thinking about making a Christmas album of my own. It gave me something fun to work on and look forward to.”
The comforting collection of holiday songs include the opening track, which is also an original song, “Christmas Calling (Jolly Jones)”.

It was headline news last year when word broke out that the holiday specials featuring Charlie Brown, Snoopy and the rest of the Peanuts gang, which typically air between October and December, would not air on network television but instead would stream on AppleTV+. In November, PBS announced that the network would air “A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving” and “A Charlie Brown Christmas” which was great news for non-subscribers of Apple’s streaming service.
According to USAToday, it seems that PBS will continue in airing the holiday specials this year in addition to AppleTV+ streaming of all Peanuts specialsโdespite the initial exclusive streaming deal.
