“When I get asked what album I am most proud of, I always say our Christmas record. It is full of joy, fun, memory-making and celebration. Our deluxe version of the album is like an extra dose of sprinkles on top of the Christmas cookie. The new songs add to the fun and pay homage to the reverence of my favorite time of year,” shares Sidewalk Prophets front man Dave Frey. “So when your family gathers together to deck the halls with laughter, make sure this album is a part of the soundtrack for holiday fun. It’s the perfect way to tune your heart and soul to celebrate the birth of the King of Kings.”
