Christmas in September
It’s not too early to think about Christmas — music that is.
Today my e-mail was full of news about upcoming Christmas-themed releases by contemporary Christian and Gospel recording artists. A couple of the holiday albums will be released in early October, but several will be available next week.
Get out your pen and start making your list just in case you want to grab a few of these when they hit the shelves:
1. “A pureNRG Christmas”is set for release Sept. 23. The compilation from Fervent 
Records’ tween group includes 10 tracks. The CD showcases a variety of Christmas classics done “pureNRG style.”
2. “Tennessee Christmas: A Holiday Collection” by Point of Grace will be released on Oct. 7. This new Christmas album combines songs from their two previous holiday collections, along with a new version of the song “Tennessee Christmas.”
3. “O Holy Night: A Live Christmas Celebration”by David Phelps will be released Sept. 23. The album was recorded live on Phelp’s farm in southern Tennessee.
4. “Home for Christmas”by BarlowGirl is set for 
release Sept. 23. This compilation allows fans to spend the season with sisters Alyssa, Lauren and Rebecca Barlow through 11 songs that include Christmas favorites and original recordings.
5. “And There Was Christmas”by Zomba Gospel Group will be in stores Oct. 28. The compilation of various Gospel artists includes Christmas songs from Kirk Franklin (shown below), Donnie McClurkin, 
Mary Mary, Marvin Sapp and others.
