Josh Turner Announces New Christmas Record & Tour

Audio By Carbonatix

Josh Turner is already in the holiday spirit. The singer is set to release the holiday album “King Sized Manger” on October 8^th, followed by a holiday tour. 

The new album will feature 11 tracks, including Christmas classics, and four original holiday tunes.

“Making a Christmas record can be a mighty daunting task for an artist,” says Turner.  “We had a lot of fun throwing out all the preconceived notions of what a Christmas record should sound like,” noting, “In my opinion, it’s about the words and the heart and soul of how a song sounds. You don’t need jingle bells on a song to make it a Christmas song.”

Check out the track list below:

1. “Angels We Have Heard On High”
2. “What He’s Given Me” (Featuring Pat McLaughlin)
3. “King Size Manger”
4. “Joy To The World” (Featuring Rhonda Vincent)
5. “Soldier’s Gift”
6. “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas” (Featuring The Turner Family)
7. “Go Tell It On The Mountain”
8. “Mele Kalikimaka My ‘Ohana” (Featuring Jake Shimabukuro and Ho’okena)*
9. “The First Nowell”
10. “Santa Claus Is Comin’ To Town”
11. “Silent Night, Holy Night”

• To support the album, Josh will head out on a 16-city “Holiday & The Hits” Tour that kicks off November 18^th in Holland, Michigan, and wraps December 20^th at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. Check out the complete list of dates here.
