This December, renowned Jamaican singer Tessanne Chin is celebrating the holiday season in a way only she can: with heartfelt music and a vibrant stage production that promises to captivate audiences.
A Holiday Anthem for All
Tessanne Chin’s new single, Christmas Is Better With You, was released independently on December 3, bringing a refreshing twist to holiday music. Written in collaboration with Giomar Mitchell and Olaf Blackwood, the song radiates warmth and nostalgia, focusing on the true meaning of the season — love, togetherness, and cherished relationships. “Since becoming a mother, Christmas has taken on a deeper meaning,” Chin explained. “This song is a tribute to those who make the holidays truly special — the ones we hold dear.”
Produced live by Giomar Mitchell, the track features stellar musicians like drummer Paul Kastick and saxophonist Dean Fraser, who lend their talents to create a soulful, festive vibe that echoes the joy of the season.
An Evening of Talent and Joy
In addition to her new music, Chin is also preparing for Our Christmas Wish, an annual holiday extravaganza presented by her Voice Box Performing Arts Ensemble. This year’s show, scheduled for December 15 at the Karl Hendrickson Auditorium, promises an evening full of energy and creativity, showcasing the ensemble’s emerging talents. Guests can look forward to performances from gospel artist Kevin Downswell and the ever-talented Sevana.
“It’s a labor of love,” Chin says of the event. “The kids have poured their hearts into this performance, and we’re excited to share their hard work with everyone.” With a mix of festive songs, dance routines, and holiday-themed drama, Our Christmas Wish is set to be a celebration of both the season and the power of artistic expression.
