Hear ye, hear ye, the line up for the 2023 CMA Country Christmas Special are as follows: CMA Entertainer of the Year: Lainey Wilson with Zach Williams, Jon Pardi, Ashely McBryde, Jordan Davis, Lady A, the War and Treaty and Lindsay Stirling. The harmonizing, holiday hoopla will be hosted by (my spirit animal) Miss Trisha Yearwood and Miss Amy Grant. So put on your favorite holiday themed jammies, a pair of your fuzziest slippers, grab a cup of hot coco and settle in by the tree as Christmas goes country! The 2023 CMA Country Christmas will air 12/14 on ABC and then available for streaming next day, 12/15, on Hulu and Disney+.

Niko and his wife Anna Moon are not only co-songwriters but co-recording artists too. And this year, they are really leaning into the holiday spirit. If you’re needing to add some updated Christmas music to your playlist, then defiantly check out Niko and Anna’s take on All I Want for Christmas is You! And by the way, if you just need positive vibes and hilarious content in your life, then also check out Niko Moon’s X account. Besides animal videos, he has THE MOST uplifting content. Seriously, if this music thing doesn’t work out, he could be a really successful life coach or Zen Master!
