Kenny G knows how to set the perfect holiday mood, and his favorite seasonal song happens to be one he recorded himself—Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas. The legendary saxophonist shared his thoughts with us at LAX, explaining why this smooth jazz classic is ideal for cozy Christmas moments by the fire.
Reflecting on the recording process back in 1994 for his chart-topping album Miracles: The Holiday Album, Kenny described the experience as one of those magical sessions where everything just clicked. He modestly claimed he “hit it out of the park,” and fans of the song would undoubtedly agree.
For those looking to enjoy his music this season, Kenny isn’t pushing album sales—he suggests hopping on YouTube to experience the track for free. While holiday staples like Mariah Carey’s All I Want For Christmas Is You and Bing Crosby’s White Christmas often dominate the airwaves, Kenny’s entire holiday album offers a smooth and soulful alternative.
If you’re in the market for a jazzy, laid-back Christmas vibe, Kenny G has you covered. His soothing saxophone melodies might just become your go-to soundtrack for the season. 🎷🎄
