Leslie Odom Jr., known for his Tony Award-winning role as Aaron Burr in the Broadway musical “Hamilton”, made a very special announcement on his Instagram today… he’s releasing a new Christmas album next month!
Appropriately and simply titled The Christmas Album, you can expect to hear it in its entirety when it releases on November 6th. Not only will this album include many classic and modern hits, like Leslie’s rendition of Wham!‘s iconic “Last Christmas”, but he also collaborated with fellow Tony-winner, Cynthia Erivo, on a new version of “Winter Song”. Leslie previously recorded a version of the Sara Bareilles and Ingrid Michaelson-penned track for his 2016 holiday record, Simply Christmas.
Leslie has also promised collaborations with his wife Nicolette Robinson (Broadway’s “Waitress”), the Mzansi Youth Choir, and The Walls Group & Michea Walls.
