(October 18, 2024) // Grammy-winning gospel singer-songwriter Jonathan McReynolds is set to bring a new sound to the holiday season with the release of his first-ever Christmas EP, Red & Green, out November 22 via Life Room Label/Capitol Christian Music Group / Motown Gospel. Featuring an eclectic blend of original songs, Red & Green is the perfect soundtrack for any festive celebration or a cozy night at home by the fire. Known for his signature voice and heartfelt lyrics, McReynolds brings his take to Christmas music with a body of work that is entirely his own—no holiday covers, just fresh, uplifting tracks that capture the spirit of the season.

To accompany the project announcement, McReynolds is sharing the lead single and title track, "Red & Green," which is available now on all major streaming platforms. “Christmas comes at the end of the year. And sometimes that year took a lot out of us,” says McReynolds. “The cost and the benefit of being able to put on your red and green and get in the spirit of the season and remind yourself of God’s greatest gift to us gets higher and higher. I wanted to make some original music to reflect that.”

Listen to the title track and lead single HERE.

In addition to the new music, McReynolds will embark on the Red & Green tour, a six-city concert series kicking off in Chicago on December 1, and wrapping up in Atlanta on December 21. The tour will allow fans to experience McReynolds' original Christmas songs live, creating an unforgettable holiday experience. Tickets for the Red & Green tour go on sale this Friday, October 18.
