Cobb, known for his work with Chris Stapleton, Jason Isbell, Brandi Carlile, and more. Everybody Knows It’s Christmas is Isaak’s second career holiday album since his chart-topping 2004 Christmas on Warner Bros. Records. Isaak recently shared track-by-track stories behind each song on the album on both Spotify’s Sun Records Stories and Pandora Stories.
“The holidays are such a special time for me and the pandemic left us all so isolated. I felt like a
holiday album was a great opportunity to bring people together this year. I had so much fun
making this album and designing the cover,” Isaak said.
In Nashville on Sunday, November 20, Grimey’s New and Preloved Music hosted a vinyl release
event limited to the first 150 people who pre-bought an album. During the event Isaak performed
a set of songs from the new album and a handful of his classics including “Wicked Game” and “Baby Did a Bad Bad Thing.”
“We got this amazing opportunity to help promote the new Chris Isaak Christmas album,” says
Mike Grimes, co-owner of Grimey’s with Doyle Davis. “The promotion was if you purchased a
record, you got in to see Chris live at Grimey’s and the promotion sold out within just a few
hours. We had 150 people show up and get to see Chris Isaak do songs from the awesome
new Christmas record and the classics. It was the most incredible event we’ve had since we
opened the new Grimey’s!” The store, and event, were managed by Davis, Grimes and
Grimey’s manager, Anna Lundy.
