New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Cabaret, concert and recording artist
Travis Moser has released a new version of the Ralph Blane and Hugh
Martin holiday standard, Have Yourself a Merry
Little Christmas.
Have Yourself a Merry
Little Christmas, originally written for 1944 film Meet Me in St. Louis and performed by Judy Garland, has gone through a few lyrical revisions over the years. When
Frank Sinatra recorded it for his 1957 album A Jolly Christmas, he felt the line "Until then we'll have to muddle through some how" was too depressing, so it became "Hang a shining star upon the highest bough." When
Judy Garland performed the song again on The
Judy Garland Show Christmas Special in 1963, she sung the revised lyric as well. Since then, the revised lyric has become the most commonly used...until now!
Travis Moser's brand new recording incorporates both versions of the lyric to honor the trepidation and hope for the New Year. Add Travis's new version of Have Yourself a Merry
Little Christmas to your holiday playlist!
Have Yourself a Merry
Little Christmas was recorded and engineered at The Smooth Spot Recording Studio and mastered at 4D Audio Productions. The single is available on iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify and everywhere music is streamed/sold! For more information check out TravisMoser.com!
