New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Soft rock superstar Lobo has released "Winter Wonderland" on StarVista Music, a Christmas EP just in time for the holiday season. The collection features Lobo's warm and wistful vocals on favorites "Winter Wonderland" and "Frosty the Snowman" along with two original songs he wrote with Billy Aerts,
"Late Christmas Eve" and "A Big Kid's Christmas." The EP is now available on all major streaming platforms.
"The theme is sort of centered around non-traditional Christmas songs," explains Kent LaVoie (who records as Lobo). "I always thought 'Frosty The Snowman' was a fun song and I'm hoping people will noticed how I played around with the ending a little bit. And I especially liked recording 'Winter Wonderland.' It has two different melodies and the chord structure is so nice."
The EP also includes two original songs that Lobo released as singles in 2021. "The holidays are special for everyone, from kids on up through grandparents, so I wanted to write something a little different: songs from an adult's point of view that tell the story of how a lot of us see Christmas," he adds. "'A Big Kid's Christmas' is about grandma and grandpa and what Christmas means to them after all these years together. And 'Late Christmas Eve' reflects that moment when you and your spouse have finished putting all the presents out for the kids, it's 11 o'clock and you're worn out but swept up in the emotion of it all, cherishing that tonight's all ours and tomorrow is theirs."
Lobo's dreamy love songs dominated the Adult Contemporary charts for decades with 12 Top 20 AC hits and four AC No. 1's, and have remained popular around the world ever since. Lobo reaches over a million monthly listeners on Spotify alone and has nearly 200,000 subscribers of his official YouTube channel where a video for "I'd Love You To Want Me" has been viewed more than 43 million times.
