Mason Ramsey delivers a dose of holiday nostalgia this Christmas season with the release of his EP, MERRY CHRISTMAS BABY, out today via Atlantic Records. The 6-track compilation showcases his “lower, warmer and richer” voice (Billboard) with original track about longing for the one you love, “Waiting On You (For Christmas),” as well as 5 classic holiday tunes including his striking version of “Silent Night.” Ramsey’s rendition of “Blue Christmas” displays his swoonworthy soulful sound that “will make you question if you’re listening to ‘that Walmart yodeling boy’ or Elvis himself” (US Weekly). The holiday project, produced by Dan Fernandez, follows his debut full-length album I’ll See You In My Dreams which released last month to an outpouring of critical acclaim. Adding to the excitement, last week the Twisters movie soundtrack, in which Ramsey’s “Shake Shake (All Night Long)” is featured, earned a Grammy nomination for Best Compilation Soundtrack for Visual Media.
