Country-Pop singer/songwriter and recording artist Jennifer Alvarado recently released her new EP, “Christmas in Carolina,” just in time for the holidays!
“Christmas has always been my favorite holiday,” Jennifer shares. “When I think back to my childhood, I remember how special my grandparents made the holidays. I spent a lot of time with my grandparents as a kid and when I think of them, I can’t help but smile. I wanted this project to feel like we were gathered in my grandmother’s living room and singing Christmas carols again. The title track “Christmas in Carolina” is dedicated to my Pappaw and Nanny. I will always remember baking with my Nanny and helping my Pappaw setup the Christmas Snow Village. I hope these songs bring a little bit of nostalgia to the listener and to slow down for just a second and remember the magic of Christmas.”
Track Listing
1. Christmas in Carolina
2. Love Came Down
