Nashville, Tenn. (Sept. 28, 2016) ---- Husband and wife folk-pop duo, Jenny & Tyler, will release a new holiday album, Christmas Stories, Nov. 4, with pre-sale orders beginning Oct. 21. Produced by Ben Shive (Rend Collective, Brandon Heath, Andrew Peterson), the project features eight Christmas classics and one original song written by Jenny, Tyler, and Trent Monk, “Christmastime,” which is the single going for adds at Christian radio on Nov. 24. Christmas Stories marks the first time the duo worked with Shive, and the end result is a jazz sound with a nostalgic feel that is reminiscent of Bing Crosby, Simon and Garfunkel, and The Swell Season. The record is being released by Centricity’s new independent label, Residence Music, and will be distributed by Caroline/Capitol Music Group.

“Christmas Stories is our attempt to rekindle the wonder of Christmas,” explains Jenny. “It’s how we felt when we were kids waiting impatiently for Santa, reliving the Christmas story, and listening to our parents’ holiday albums.”

Adds Tyler, ‘The older you get, the more difficult it seems to be truly amazed by something. We recorded this album to give ourselves a reason to pause and reflect, to get back to that childlike wonder.”

“On Christmas Stories, I think Jenny & Tyler really capture the nostalgia and memory that we all have of the holiday season,” continues Andrew Lambeth, Director Artist Development, Residence Music. “Whether it’s the classic Bing Crosby holiday feel of ‘Christmastime’ or the old British hymn ‘Maker of the Sun and Moon,’ Jenny & Tyler have made an album that will be great for the family, young and old."

Christmas Stories offers the listener the warmth of past Christmas’s and can be enjoyed while decorating your tree, looking at Christmas lights or drinking a hot cup of cocoa with family and friends. Such traditional favorites as “I’ll Be Home For Christmas,” “Handel’s Messiah,” and “White Christmas,” deliver the familiarity of well-loved songs, while the performances of Jenny & Tyler add their own unique contributions. With “Oh Holy Night,” Jenny imagined singing the classic as a lullaby for her two young daughters, while Tyler delivered an uplifting, joyful version of “Winter Wonderland.” The couple’s fans also played a part in the song selection by suggesting “The Maker of the Sun and Moon.”

Jenny & Tyler will be the featured guest of Andrew Peterson on his highly popular 17th annual Behold the Lamb of God Christmas Tour that launches Nov. 30 in Houston, Texas.

About Jenny & Tyler
Jenny & Tyler are a husband and wife folk-pop act who are originally from the east coast, and met on the campus of the University of Delaware. Both of them grew up in musical families with different tastes, where Jenny was introduced to artists like Ricky Skaggs and for Tyler it was acts like Bing Crosby. Following their marriage, the couple began their songwriting careers that eventually led them to performing their own compositions. Even though they had diverse music styles between them, it led to a unique sound of their own that began resonating with music fans. Drawing influence from Simon & Garfunkel, Glen Hansard, and Alison Krauss, Jenny & Tyler have found their place in today’s landscape of singers/songwriters in the folk-pop genre. Their songs have been featured on ABC’s Pretty Little Liars, NY Med, MTV’s Teen Mom, and YouTube’s Kid President. During ten years of mastering their craft and over 1,100 concerts performed nationally and internationally, the duo has developed their sound through extensive touring alongside such artists as Sara Groves, Green River Ordinance, Brandon Heath, and Mac Powell. Jenny & Tyler have released three charting albums, with the latest being Of This I’m Sure in 2015, which was the first project for their new record label, Residence Music. Their latest holiday project, Christmas Stories, releases Nov. 4, 2016. The couple resides in Nashville, Tennessee and are parents to two daughters, Jane and Sara.
