Check out some of the best Christmas albums released in 2023 that would be perfect to add on you holiday playlists as we wrap up this year!
Cher - 'Christmas'
Who knew Cher would slay a full album containing Christmas songs? This is what she did in October 2023 as she kicked off the holiday season months in advanced with "Christmas."
The pop star dropped her 27th studio album and her first one in over a decade as her previous album, "Closer to the Truth" was released in 2013.
The record contains some original songs as well as cover of Christmas classics, but what struck the most with fans, and even Kelly Clarkson, was "DJ Play a Christmas Song" which is a perfect track to play if you feel extra jolly.
The album featured some talented artists like Michael Bublé, Darlene Love, Stevie Wonder, Tyga, and Cyndi Lauper.
Pentatonix - 'The Greatest Christmas Hits'
Pentatonix has been synonymous with the holiday season for years now as they love releasing Christmas songs almost every single year.
For 2023, the group, consisting of Mitch Grassi, Kirstin Maldonado, Scott Hoying, Kevin Olusola, and Matt Sallee, decided to drop a compilation album titled "The Greatest Christmas Hits" which features over 23 songs from their previous records.
To celebrate the release and to start the holiday season, they went on tour which started on November 2023.
The two-disc album features tracks like "Frosty the Snowman" featuring Alessia Cara, "Kid on Christmas" featuring Meghan Trainor, "Thank You," "Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!," and many more.
Seth MacFarlane & Elizabeth Gillies - 'We Wish You The Merriest'
Actors Seth MacFarlane and Elizabeth Gillies collaborated for the first time in an album for the record "We Wish You the Merriest" released in November 2023.
The album was composed of mostly covers of classic holiday songs.
"After collaborating for nearly a decade, I was beyond thrilled when Seth came to me with the idea of recording a holiday record. Our first official record. There is no one I know who possesses a deeper knowledge and appreciation for this era of music than Seth," Gillies said in a statement.
RuPaul - 'Essential Christmas'
Similar to Pentatonix, RuPaul decided to drop a compilation album of his hit Christmas tracks over the past years titled "Essential Christmas."
Most of his songs are original and are perfect to play if you want you and your friends to dance through the night with upbeat tracks.
Most of the songs are also written by himself and Ellis Miah.
