MICHELLE WRIGHT’S A WRIGHT CHRISTMAS & MORE NOW AVAILABLE

Just in time for the holidays, Michelle Wright — one of Canada’s most successful and widely-recognized country artists — today releases A Wright Christmas & More (BFD / Audium Nashville), a remastered and renamed edition of her 2005 holiday album, A Wright Christmas.

The twelve-track compilation includes classic holiday hits such as “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas,” “Jingle Bell Rock,” “White Christmas,” Winter Wonderland,” and “Rudolph the Red-Rosed Reindeer,” among others. Though the album is a remaster, Wright couldn’t help but add a few new songs co-written with several of her songwriter pals.

“Recording A Wright Christmas is one of my favorite musical experiences,” explains Wright. “Instead of looking for a ‘hit,’ I got to record some of my favorite Christmas songs. We approached this project the same way. We added the classic ‘Silver Bells,’ but I also fulfilled a dream of mine by writing my own ‘new favorite’ Christmas songs with my friends Jeannie Seely, Victoria Shaw, Patricia Conroy, and Bob Funk, which has added more great memories for me. We had so much fun writing these songs, and getting back into the studio with my friend and producer Bob Funk is always something I look forward to.”

Wright’s holiday album is one of several remasters she has released over the past few years. In May of 1992, Arista/Nashville released Now and Then, the album that introduced Wright to the world. In August 2022, BFD/Audium Nashville celebrated the project’s 20th anniversary with the release of Milestone, the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame member’s first new music release in nine years. Due to an overwhelming response from her fans, the label began the process of putting Wright’s catalog of music into the hands of a new generation of listeners. The label released remastered versions of The Wright Songs: An Acoustic Evening with Michelle Wright, Do Right By Me, Everything and More and Strong. All are available now digitally as well as physical CD.
