With less than two months to go until Christmas, GRAMMY Award Winning musician, producer, author, and founding member of hard rock bands Alter Bridge, Creed and Tremonti, Mark Tremonti is releasing his original holiday composition ‘Christmas Morning.’
The song was penned by Tremonti and tells the story of the excitement of waking up on Christmas morning. The song draws from personal experience and how special that moment is to him and his family. ‘Christmas Morning’ is the third track released from “Christmas Classics New & Old” which is now available everywhere music is available for streaming and purchase.
The music video is a claymation work of art created by Ollie Jones and follows a father who finds Santa’s naughty/nice list and ventures to bring it back to him. The visual masterpiece is the perfect backdrop for a song produced and arranged by Carey Deadman.
“Christmas Classics New & Old” is Mark’s interpretation of nine-holiday classics and one original penned song from the acclaimed songwriter himself. After the success of his interpretation of songs Frank Sinatra made famous on his album “Tremonti Sings Sinatra”, Mark decided to partner up with the orchestra from that album to work on the holiday album.
From the opening horns of ‘The Most Wonderful Time of the Year’ to the slow fade of the Donny Hathaway classic ‘This Christmas,’ Mark Tremonti showcases the music that was the bedrock of his childhood holidays. Mark’s interpretations of songs like ‘Jingle Bells,’ ‘The First Noel’ and ‘Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas’ find their place among the many great versions that preceded them. ‘O Holy Night’ is one of Mark’s personal favorites and finds new life in the inspired arrangement by producer Carey Deadman. Mark also took the time to create his own holiday composition called ‘Christmas Morning.’ “Christmas Classics New & Old” will sit alongside the most-cherished holiday albums and continue to showcase the musical diversity inside Mark Tremonti. The album is now available worldwide HERE.
Reuniting with members of the orchestra from “Tremonti Sings Sinatra” and “Christmas Classics New & Old”, Mark is announcing 3 new tour dates to go along with his previously announced show in Orlando on Saturday, December 16. The new dates will take Mark and his orchestra to New Jersey for two shows and Beverly Hills California for one next January.
