“It’s really a song for anyone who has experienced loss around Christmas, and how that has changed what it means to them.” - Johnny 99


"There is so much in the news about how divided our society is. We wanted to write something fun and festive, while also conveying the message that Christmas is a day when we can set our differences aside." - Don Amero


"The holiday calendar can feel overwhelming, with all the rushing around and endless to-do lists. Sometimes, all you want is to stay home, snuggle up, and let everything slow down for a while," - Jessica Rhaye


"The song was inspired by the feeling I get when I’m enjoying the holidays with my family, There’s a magic and a warmth to this time of year, and one of my favourite things to do is lounge around with them in our pyjamas, drinking a nice glass of wine, watching the original animated Grinch, with the Christmas tree lit in the background." - Maya Malkin

"This new album channels all the bright optimism of Christmas towards what is the most important element in life, and especially in the holiday season: Love.” - Steven Taetz
