Dan + Shay - It's Officially Christmas: The Double Album [2LP Colored Vinyl]
It's Officially Christmas: The Double Album gives Dan + Shay twice the room to deck the halls, spread across two LPs pressed on colored vinyl.
Dan Smyllie and Shay Mooney have become one of country music's most successful duos by pairing pop polish with heartfelt Nashville songwriting. Released in 2024, this set splits the season in two. The first record gathers ten holiday standards, while the second is made up of eleven songs written or co-written by the pair, giving fans something new to hum alongside the classics.
The standards are handled with real affection. "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" opens the first record with plenty of sparkle, and "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" gives Mooney's powerhouse voice room to soar.
The originals are where their personality shines. "Officially Christmas" kicks off the second disc with cheerful, cosy energy, while "Take Me Home for Christmas" leans into the nostalgic pull of heading home for the holidays. Elsewhere the songs range from playful to sentimental, with the tight harmonies that made them stars running through every track.
For country fans who like their holidays warm and a little bit sparkly, it is a ready-made soundtrack to tree trimming and long winter evenings.
