CARLA WILLIAMS DECKS THE AIRWAVES THIS HOLIDAY SEASON WITH HER WARM ADAPTATION OF MERRY CHRISTMAS DARLING
Carla Williams, the applauded vocalist that was spotlighted in 2019 as a New Release Today “Indie Artist to Watch”, will have you igniting the Yule log this holiday season with her version of The Carpenters classic, Merry Christmas Darling. Merry Christmas Darling is now available on Amazon, Apple Music, iTunes, Spotify and Google Play.
“Christmas is my favorite time of year!” says Carla. “Merry Christmas Darling has been one of my favorites my whole life. We’ve all missed someone during the holidays and this song pulls right at those heartstrings.“
Produced by Tom Hemby (4x DOVE award winner) and Michael Omartian (3x Grammy & 4x DOVE award winner), Merry Christmas Darling spotlights Carla’s torch singer vocals as she pays homage to The Carpenters who first released this tune 49 years ago.
“The Carpenters’ iconic holiday song Merry Christmas Darling has to be one of my all-time favorite Christmas songs!” says Tom Hemby. “And, the thought of anyone else ever attempting to re-record it in the shadow of Karen Carpenter’s magical performance has been almost unimaginable until now. Carla Williams’ performance not only rivals The Carpenters original masterpiece, but Carla delivers a beautiful heartfelt performance as if she completely owns it. Hearing is believing and Carla made a believer out of me. This is such a gorgeous tribute to the incomparable, Karen Carpenter.”
