Looking for a new holiday album to add to your rotation? Santa Baby by Lizzie Thomas has sophisticated jazz renditions of all your festive favorites. I stumbled on this album after realizing I may have grown out of NSYNC Christmas covers on a scratched up Now That's What I Call Christmas CD. Lizzie Thomas approaches holiday hits with timeless, elegant flair in her album Santa Baby -- sure to stand the test of time.
When it comes to Holiday repertoire, individual style always seems to help an artist stand out. Thousands of recordings have been made of all these songs, yet when a musician really leans into their unique qualities, the melodies of these known classics feel new again. Lizzie Thomas' album includes the following tried and true compositions: "Let It Snow", "Santa Baby", "Winter Wonderland", "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas", "Sleigh Ride", "Silver Bells" and "What are You Doing New Years Eve". All iconic in their own versatile way, the selected songs thrive in the jazz club atmosphere that encapsulates this album. "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" is particularly thrilling, showcasing the warm, velvety tones of Lizzie Thomas' voice over stellar orchestrations. The musicians who skillfully brought these arrangements to life include Xavier Davis (piano), Ron Affif (guitar), Yoshi Waki (bass), Alvester Garnett (drums), Frank Lacy (trombone), Janelle Reichman (clarinet), and Antoine Drye (trumpet). All in all, Lizzie Thomas' Santa Baby is an incredibly well-curated, tasteful Holiday album.
