Gary Barlow returns with his first ever holiday album ‘The Dream of Christmas’

Due November 26, the LP features brand new original songs and beautifully orchestrated Christmas classics, including a handful of big-name collaborations. 

The gorgeously festive How Christmas is Supposed to Be is a sparkly pop duet with Sheridan Smith, while Gary also collaborated with Welsh baritone Aled Jones on A Child’s Christmas in Wales, cellist Sheku Kanneh-Mason on the spellbinding The Colder It Feels, and vocal harmony trio The Puppini Sisters on festive classic Winter Wonderland.

“We were all trying to make Christmas feel good last year,” recalls Gary. “It was a really hard Christmas for so many because of the scenario we all found ourselves in. So to try and make things a bit special, I started writing these songs. 

“I had never listened to those classic Christmas songs with the idea of singing them myself, but as this record evolved, so did my appreciation for these wonderful songs. 

“It all started off as a bit of a dalliance in the studio and before I knew it, I had a whole album!”

Lead singles, The Dream of Christmas and Sleigh Ride, are out now. 

‘The Dream of Christmas’ is available to pre-order on CD, vinyl and cassette.
