Acclaimed saxophonist Grady Nichols released his first-ever holiday project FALLING IN LOVE WITH CHRISTMAS via RED/Sony Music and New Day Christian Distributors. The seventh career album to date for the Emmy nominated artist features Nichols’ signature sounds in a vibrant blend of seasonal classics mixed with new, original tunes.

In addition, FALLING IN LOVE WITH CHRISTMAS is currently available for pre-order on iTunes. Drawing on Nichols personal influence with masters of the genre such as Henry Mancini, Eddy Arnold and the Carpenters, FALLING IN LOVE WITH CHRISTMAS features instrumental renditions of Christmas favorites such as “Winter Wonderland,” “Little Drummer Boy,” “O Come All Ye Faithful” and “O Holy Night.” The holiday album also offers original tunes through the upbeat anthem “One More Christmas Song” (vocal guest performance by 4Him’s Andy Chrisman) and title track, “Falling in Love with Christmas.” FALLING IN LOVE WITH CHRISTMAS presents a cast of world renown musicians and longtime friends that collaborated alongside Nichols, including Grammy Award-winning producer Michael Omartian (Billy Joel, Steely Dan), Dove Award-winning producer Chris Rodriguez (Keith Urban, Faith Hill), David John, Matt Pierson, Steve Brewster and Dove Award winning orchestral arranger/pianist David Hamilton (Amy Grant, Michael W. Smith) who also arranged and conducted The Nashville String Machine, a 30-piece orchestra that is featured on the project. Throughout his musical journey, Nichols has collaborated with some of the world’s leading talents. He has opened for Ray Charles, the Temptations, Al Green, and Luciano Pavarotti, making him the only artist allowed to open for Pavarotti on his North American farewell tour. Nichols has performed with Peter Cetera, the Beach Boys, Kirk Whalum, and Roy Clark.

In addition, his albums have featured acclaimed guest vocalists such as two time Grammy Award winner Bill Champlin of Chicago, Leigh Nash of Sixpence None the Richer and Zac Maloy, alumni of the Nixons who also penned the No. 1 hit “Temporary Home” for Carrie Underwood, Jeff Lorber, and Grammy Award winner Chris Botti who toured with Sting, among others.
