GRAMMY and Emmy Award-winning musician, singer, and composer Harry Connick, Jr. has just released a brand-new holiday album, Make It Merry. The album is available exclusively on Apple Music in Spatial Audio and iTunes. 

With regards to the title track "Make It merry," Connick writes, "When I recorded this originally, on my first Christmas album, I remember being in the capitol records studio in los angeles beating on a cardboard box for the drums. on my new album `make it merry,' the version's recording isn't much different. I was by myself recording all of the instruments and vocals, but I asked my buddy, Jonathan Dubose, Jr., to join me. he's my secret weapon - he makes every song better! we had so much fun trading solos. Make sure to stream my new album `make it merry' on Apple Music!" 

Long regarded as one of America's finest vocalists and pianists, Harry has continued to establish himself as one of the most beloved artists performing holiday music to date. The 12-track album, which marks his fourth holiday album, features Harry's definitive take on Christmas classics including "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" and "Jingle Bells," as well as newly-recorded versions of his own originals and fan favorites like "(It Must've Been Ol') Santa Claus" and "When My Heart Finds Christmas," alongside two brand-new, original songs that are sure to become instant holiday classics. "Make It Merry" is the first of the original songs, along with "On This Christmas Morning," set to be featured on the album. 

Harry Connick, Jr. has exemplified excellence in every aspect of the entertainment world. He has received recognition with multiple GRAMMY and Emmy Awards as well as Tony nominations for his live and recorded musical performances, his achievements on screens large and small, and his appearances on Broadway as both an actor and a composer. He has sold millions of holiday albums, which have become the soundtrack to Christmas for fans around the world.
