SINGER-SONGWRITER ELLIE HOLCOMB WELCOMES SPRING WITH A BRAND NEW CHILDREN'S ALBUM SING: SPRING SONGS AVAILABLE NOW
NEWS SOURCE: Merge PR March 21, 2025
NASHVILLE, TENN. (MARCH 21, 2025) Award-winning author and songwriter Ellie Holcomb releases her fourth children's album, Sing: Spring Songs, a companion album to her latest top-selling children's book, Spring Sings. Listen to Sing: Spring Songs now.
"This album feels like a joyful celebration of the hope we all have because of the Easter Story,” shares Ellie Holcomb. "There’s a song that goes along with the book, as always on my kids' records, and the rest of the record feels like both a party and a blessing to send families on their way, singing melodies of hope in their hearts.”
Produced by Nathan Dugger, this album includes seven songs, five of which are originals, and a unique bluegrass version of the classic hymn "Christ the Lord Is Risen Today."
Holcomb adds, "I’ve always loved this song, but it has often felt very formal and choral to me when I’ve heard it in church. I loved having it sound more like a front porch party song because the lyrics carry some of the best news ever. I hope that kids will freshly hear the words and be able to make connections both in Easter services, and as they go outside and look at God making the earth new each spring…and be reminded of the story of Jesus dying and then walking out of the grave to make a way for ALL to know life and light and love forever."
She released her beautiful picture book earlier this year and it climbed to the No. 1 new release on the "Children's Easter Books" chart on Amazon after release. Spring Sings showcases Holcomb's use of her beloved lyrical writing style to encourage young readers to watch as the world slowly wakes from winter - to know that the new life of spring also retells the story of God's Son.
"We all know what it feels like to walk through winter seasons, but winter never gets the final word. Spring always sings a song of hope, reminding us that God loves to make all things new," shares Holcomb.
About Ellie Holcomb: For eight years, Ellie recorded and toured full-time with her husband’s band, Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors, before stepping off the road when her first child was born. Her solo debut, As Sure As The Sun (2014), landed her a Top 10 hit and a GMA Dove Award for “New Artist of the Year.” Her critically acclaimed sophomore LP, Red Sea Road, followed in 2017. In 2021, she released her third full-length solo project, Canyon, to much acclaim, earning her a second Top 10 radio single with the song, "I Will Carry You."
Holcomb has also released three children’s books - each with a companion EP of original music written specifically for kids. Her debut book, Who Sang The First Song? (B&H Publishers, 2018), has achieved the Evangelical Christian Publishers Association (ECPA) Bronze Award for selling more than 100,000 copies. The book hit the ECPA juvenile bestseller list and was a finalist for the 2019 Christian Book Award in the children's category. She has also authored two additional children's books, Don't Forget To Remember, and most recently her Christmas book, Sounding Joy, which landed at No. 4 on ECPA's Christian Juvenile Bestsellers, Christmas 2022 list. She won the GMA Dove Award for "Children's Album of the Year" in 2020 for her Sing: Remembering Songs album, in 2022 for "Recorded Music Packaging" for her album Canyon as well as in 2023 for "Children's Recorded Song of the Year" for her Christmas song "Sounding Joy." Her first adult book and devotional, Fighting Words: 100 Days of Speaking Truth into the Darkness (2021), has spent many months on the ECPA Bestseller list.
