JUNO Award-winning singer-songwriter Catherine MacLellan's debut collection of holiday songs, aptly titled Holiday. The album includes her original single "Calling You Home (for the Holidays)", and three beloved classics ("In The Bleak Midwinter", "Blue Christmas", and "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas").

The EP is self-engineered and self-produced, mixed by Adam Gallant, and mastered by David Travers-Smith.
"I’ve always wanted to make a record to celebrate the holiday season and I hope to make a series of these small, bite-sized collections;" says Catherine.

Although Catherine grew up in studios and has made eight records, this marks the first time that she's played the role of engineer, producer, and side musician, performing most instruments on the EP. "It was such a joy to make this record; I hope that Holiday can accompany you during the coming festive season."

Each new song on the EP is complimented with an official video. Watch below. Catherine shares this about the original single; "I wrote “Calling You Home (for the Holidays)” during Christmas 2020, feeling very far from family and friends that would normally gather around my kitchen table for feasts and laughter. This song is a reminder to reach out to those dear to you. When we can’t be with those we love, we can connect on the phone, in letters, or in spirit."
