While holiday music can be a little hokey, even some of the best musicians and songwriters still have their favorites.
âIt gets a little overdone sometimes, but there are definitely some classics out there,â said Baton Rouge native CJ Solar, a writer of country hits in Nashville who recently released his own country Christmas song, âThe Only Present I Want.â
Solar expects Christmas songs to help bring a sense of normalcy to a holiday season unlike any other in memory.
âPeople are really going to want to have some uplifted spirits over the holidays, and I feel like Christmas music is going to make a lot of people feel a lot of feelings for this year, whether itâs sad feelings or happy feelings,â Solar said. âThereâs been a lot of loss, and, hopefully, people will be able to enjoy music together.â
