In 2020, the celebrated singer, actress and Broadway star released a 4 song Christmas EP entitled A Very Coco<\/em><\/strong> Christmas<\/em><\/strong>. Since then, her fans have been asking her for more. She is now giving them what they want. \u00a0Vosk has finished recording her first full-length Christmas album, on Concord Theatrical Recordings, which will be ready for pre-orders on October 25.\u00a0 Digital album street date is November 15.

\u00a0SLEIGH<\/em><\/strong> is produced by Scott M. Riesett, Mary-Mitchell Campbell, Jessica Vosk and Terrence Meck in conjunction with producing partners, Next Table Entertainment & Media, Liz Armstrong, Mike Isaacson and Michelle and Joey Jacobs and has several of Jessica\u2019s bold-faced friends joining her. These names include Neil Patrick Harris<\/em><\/strong>, David Foster<\/em><\/strong>, Ariana DeBose<\/em><\/strong>, and Scott Hoying<\/em> <\/strong>(Pentatonix). Fans will also find testimonials from Ariana Grande<\/em><\/strong> and Alison Krauss<\/em><\/strong>. \u00a0SLEIGH<\/em><\/strong> is dedicated to her late father who taught Jessica to sing.<\/p>\n

Says Jessica on the creation of the album, \u201cIt\u2019s always been a life-dream of mine to make a Holiday album. As my good friend, Kristin Chenoweth<\/em><\/strong> told me, \u201cIt\u2019s a right of passage, girl!\u201d So, when I had the idea to bring this to life very early this year, I put together a wish list of guests I could have on this album with me. \u00a0All of my wishes came true when Neil Patrick<\/em><\/strong> Harris,<\/em><\/strong> David Foster<\/em><\/strong>, Ariana DeBose<\/em><\/strong> and Scott Hoying<\/em><\/strong> all said YES. My respect for these artists is so large\u2014they\u2019ve all been a part of my life, all in different chapters. The songs on this album are all my versions of both pop and traditional songs, listeners should know very well. My ride-or-die fans are so important to me, as is the LGBTQIA+ community, so you\u2019ll find some special tracks just for them. I\u00a0know how lucky I\u2019ve been to make a life out of this career I had aspired to, while I was sitting in a cubicle at a finance job years ago. The gratitude I have for my super fancy friends for coming on this album journey with me is really hard to put into complete sentences; so, I\u2019ll just say: THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THIS DREAM TO LIFE WITH ME\u201d<\/p>\n

While the album is available for pre-orders on October 25th<\/sup>, the single, \u2018Santa Tell Me<\/em><\/strong>,\u2019 a cover of Ariana Grande\u2019s<\/em><\/strong> huge Christmas hit, will be available to purchase or stream on this date as well.\u00a0 Vosk, a friend of Grande\u2019s, put new arrangements and orchestration on the song. \u00a0This is the 10-year anniversary of the song and Ariana <\/em><\/strong>has some words of encouragement for Vosk, \u201cI\u2019m so thrilled and excited for my dear friend and sister witch, Jessica Vosk, to be releasing her first Christmas album! After being a fan of hers for so long, I am so humbled and honored that she happens to be covering my song, \u2018Santa Tell Me<\/em><\/strong>,\u2019 on its 10-year anniversary (I\u2019m actually screaming.)\u201d<\/p>\n

Vosk responds, \u201cAriana Grande<\/em><\/strong> and I met while I was playing Elphaba<\/em><\/strong> on Broadway, during Wicked\u2019s<\/em><\/strong> massive 15th anniversary year. We became soul sister friends, as we both filmed an NBC special to celebrate the anniversary. We’ve kept in touch ever since. I\u2019ll never forget getting a FaceTime from her, just before the news broke that she would be playing Glinda in the Wicked film. I\u00a0remember we\u2019d talk about it as I was getting green for a show, and she was manifesting the amazing chance to play Glinda. There is no one more deserving, who works harder. Her song, \u2018Santa Tell Me<\/em><\/strong>,\u2019 has always been a BOP for me, and I wanted to put a Bridgerton spin on it. New arrangement, orchestration, etc. So, I\u00a0called her to tell her about it and she just loved the idea. Fun fact, you\u2019ll never find a more supportive friend. By chance, it happens to be the 10th anniversary for \u2018Santa Tell Me<\/em><\/strong>,\u2019 and I had no idea! Talk about serendipity. I sent it to Ari for her blessing, and she wrote a few gorgeous words to go alongside it.\u00a0\u201c<\/p>\n

Vosk is also set to hit the road in December for a Christmas Symphony tour with stops in DC at The National Symphony Orchestra at The<\/strong> Kennedy Center<\/strong> for the Performing Arts<\/strong> on December 5, 6 and 7, and at the famed Carnegie Hall<\/strong> with the New York<\/strong> Pops <\/strong>on December 20 and 21.\u00a0 Look for Vosk to perform songs from SLEIGH.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
