This new Christmas favorite was inspired by a day spent trudging through early December snow in the Stansbury mountains of Utah on the hunt for the perfect Christmas tree. Christmas carols were interspersed with hiking, chopping, and carrying the tree back to the car. It was a day straight out of a classic Christmas movie, but one thing was missing: a song about picking a Christmas tree. This catchy song fits the bill -- you'll love singing along. Lyrics by Jamie Moessing, music composed by Tommy Baxter, performed by Skylar Rodriguez, released 2023.
