New York, NY (December 15, 2017)—Singer-songwriter, author, and speaker Charles Billingsley is currently enjoying major success with his new holiday album It’s Christmas Time Again (Crest Music) released on CD, vinyl and digital formats October 13.

After debuting at #3 on the iTunes Top 5 Holiday albums (in the company of such artists as Frank Sinatra, Gwen Stefani, and Blake Shelton), his single — a swinging take on “Silver Bells” — is a solid pop adult holiday hit, maintaining a strong position inside the Top 20 on the Mediabase A/C Holiday Chart. Sitting amongst Seal, 98 Degrees, Shania Twain, and P!nk on the Billboard Adult Contemporary charts this week at #26, Billingsley’s holiday cheer is proving to truly resonate with fans.

Seasoning traditional Christmas favorites with class and big band stylization, Billingsley’s It’s Christmas Time Again has garnered rave reviews from the press. As stated by Parade Magazine , the album “channel[s] the wonderful memories of Frank and Bing…includes plenty of Christmas classics that will make it feel like the Rat Pack is in the room for your holidays.” Downbeat exclaimed “With his refined, wide-ranging voice, he fronts a swinging 18-piece Basie-ish band… [and] spreads that velvety charm of his over old hearth warmers ‘White Christmas’ and ‘December’.” Additionally, It’s Christmas Time Again received a nod in the LA Times in their “Music For Every Mood This Holiday” Christmas album round-up, which enthused “The arrangements are uniformly tasteful….Billingsley is credible with his phrasing”.

With over 3,000 shows and 24 releases to his name, Charles Billingsley has already established his place in the music world. However, It’s Christmas Time Again proved to be a new step for him.

He recently filmed the TV special Christmas: Offering The Gift Of Jesus To The World with Charles Billingsley which aired on TBN Networks last week.

With the holiday season in full swing, it’s the perfect time to get into the holiday spirit with Charles Billingsley.
