In my house growing up, the holidays were filled with music from people like Johnny Mathis, The Supremes, Nat King Cole and many others. But now that I’ve finished this recording and I hold it in my hand, it just makes me smile.”

Lewis will celebrate the new recording with his annual holiday shows at Feinstein's/54 Below. Entitled Nutcracker Cool, concerts are scheduled for December 17-22 at 7 PM. Click here for ticket information.
