CHAPEL HART—consisting of sisters Danica and Devynn Hart, along with their cousin Trea Swindle—are excited to announce today’s (October 25) release of their very first Christmas album, HARTFELT FAMILY CHRISTMAS, via Origins Records and available on all streaming platforms. The 12-song album includes four original songs, alongside well-known and beloved holiday favorites, and hosts some very special guests: Darius Rucker (“That Time Of Year”), Vince Gill (“Silver Bells”), Gretchen Wilson (“Hartfelt Family Christmas”), The Isaacs (“Christmas Day”), T. Graham Brown (“Christmas in Dixie”), Rissi Palmer (White Christmas”), and Jason Crabb (“Spirit of Christmas”).

HARTFELT FAMILY CHRISTMAS was recorded at Oak Tree Productions recording studio in Hendersonville, TN. It was produced by Danica Hart and JT3D and mixed and mastered by Billy Dawson, Dawson Studios, Nashville. Musicians on the album include Dan Needham (Drums), Gary Lunn (Bass and Guitar), Jerry McPhearson (Electric Guitar), Gideon “Terry” Klein (Pedal Steel & Acoustic Guitar) and Tre’ Corley (Keyboards).

“The Hartfelt Family Christmas album feels like a true classic with a fresh, updated feel that I can’t get enough of,” says Danica Hart. “The mix of songs on the album range from ones that make you want to get up and dance to ones that will have you driving and bawling your eyes out. This album is a must-have for the holiday season, as it truly captures the spirit of Christmas, and I believe gives you a warm welcome into the Christmas season with Chapel Hart! I highly recommend adding this album to your holiday music collection.”

The group’s very first holiday single from the album, “Come On Santa (Ready For Christmas Now)” was released October 18. You can listen to the single HERE.

“I feel like ‘Come on Santa’ is the perfect song to kick off this holiday season,” Trea Swindle says. “Until we’d finished the first playback, I realized that there hasn’t really been a song that accurately described the pre-Christmas excitement that we’ve been experiencing. This is the anthem for the folks who want to start hanging their decorations well before the pumpkin spice starts rolling out!”

On the live front, CHAPEL HART continue to wow audiences around the world. Beyond recent performances in the U.S., the group will head to Asia in November for five dates in Japan performing for U.S. military troops before embarking on the U.S. Christmas tour to support the album. The group will also help kick-off the new year in the national broadcast and streaming of the 136th Rose Parade airing on New Year’s Day (Wednesday, January 1, 2025).

About CHAPEL HART:

CHAPEL HART, consisting of sisters Danica and Devynn Hart, along with their cousin Trea Swindle, are celebrated for their performance of their Dolly Parton-inspired “You Can Have Him, Jolene” during their first appearance on America’s Got Talent in 2022 which earned them a group Golden Buzzer and catapulted them to stardom. In quick succession, the Mississippi natives shot to No. 1 on iTunes, heard from Parton herself, and received an invitation to make their Grand Ole Opry debut. Since then, they’ve gone on a world tour and reached fans around the globe earning them the title of “International Group of the Year” as well as “International Song of the Year” for their single “You Can Have Him Jolene” in Scotland. They were also nominated in multiple categories by the British CMA’s including “Group of the Year” and “Album of the Year” for their sophomore album release “The Girls Are Back In Town.” Chapel Hart continues to make major strides in a relatively short period of time having already been named CMT’s Next Women of Country, Opry Next Stage Artists, Music Row’s Next Big Thing, as well as CMT Listen Up Artists.
