holiday albums

Festive music collections

Holiday albums are music recordings themed around a specific holiday, most commonly Christmas.

Artists release these as seasonal offerings featuring traditional songs, new compositions, or both: Every major pop star eventually puts out a holiday album.

The term usually implies Christmas music unless otherwise specified, though Halloween and other holidays occasionally inspire themed collections.
