Everyday Is Christmas is the eighth studio album by Sia Furler, released under the mononym Sia. It is also her first Christmas album and was released by Atlantic Records and Monkey Puzzle on 17 November 2017. The album features songs co-written and produced by Greg Kurstin.[1][2]
Background[]
Sia confirmed the release of her first Christmas album on 1 August 2017. The album marks her first released through Atlantic Records and features original songs co-written and co-produced by longtime collaborator Greg Kurstin[3], who worked on Sia's previous three studio albums: We Are Born (2010), 1000 Forms of Fear (2014) and This Is Acting (2016).[4][5] Everyday Is Christmas was released through Sia's own record label, Monkey Puzzle, and via Inertia in Australia.[6] Nearly four years later, a new version of the album known as the Snowman Deluxe Edition would be released on 5 November 2021, featuring two new songs.[7] On 11 November 2022, the Snowman Deluxe Edition was reissued with a further three new songs. [8]
Recording[]
Recording sessions for the album took place over a couple weeks in May 2017 and left Sia and Kurstin "laughing at the end of each day". In September, Kurstin said of working on the album with Sia: "I don't know how she comes up with song lyric and melody ideas so quickly. ... [She] wrote these new Christmas stories. ... I'm still sort of new at this Christmas thing. ... [It] took me back to when we used to get into jazz chord changes. There's some really fun uptempo Christmas jams, and then there's also some Sia ballads."[9]
Trivia[]
- Maddie Ziegler's face graces the album's cover, although she does not appear in any of the corresponding music videos. However, she can be seen accompanying Sia as a dancer in live performances of Everyday Is Christmas songs, and appearing in promotional material for the album and official images.
