Bio
Music legend Michael McDonald's new Christmas album, THIS CHRISTMAS, features 12 yuletide classics, infused with McDonald's unmistakable vocal stylings.
THIS CHRISTMAS showcases Michael McDonald's twist on holiday favorites such as "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" and "White Christmas," as well as McDonald's versions of the Stevie Wonder Motown classic, "What Christmas Means to Me" and the Donny Hathaway song, "This Christmas." The album includes a special duet on "I'll Be Home for Christmas" with his 17 year old daughter, Scarlett. With a career spanning nearly thirty years, Michael McDonald is an enduring presence in popular music. He has enjoyed tremendous commercial and creative success, winning an impressive five Grammys and earned innumerable chart successes, and sales feats. From his early work with Steely Dan and the Doobie Brothers, McDonald's writing and singing lead on songs "Takin' It to the Streets," "What a Fool Believes," "Minute by Minute," and other signature songs, have made him a prominent part of the soundtrack to our times. His solo career includes such hits as "Sweet Freedom," "Yah Mo B There" "On My Own" with Patti LaBelle (which reached #1 on the Pop and R&B charts and #3 on the AC charts), "I Keep Forgettin' (Every Time You're Near)" (reached the top 5 on the Pop charts and the top 10 on both the R&B and AC charts), as well as his platinum selling MOTOWN releases with the hit of the cover "Ain't No Mountain High Enough." Every release highlights the wide breadth of his career and an almost matchless consistency through years of recording and performing.
