Mariah Carey To Launch Her New Album On TV Weeks Before Release

09/28/2010
.
Mariah Carey is partnering with HSN to launch her new holiday album, Merry Christmas II You, on October 20th ahead of its worldwide release on November 2nd.

The album will be bundled with a 30-minute DVD featuring exclusive behind-the-scenes footage of Mariah Carey recording her second Christmas album, candid interviews with the artist discussing her inspiration behind the album and reminiscing about the holidays and favorite traditions, footage of her album photo shoot with acclaimed photographer David LaChapelle, interviews with Mariah Carey's mother Patricia Carey and composer Marc Shaiman, and pictures from Mariah's personal photo holiday collection.

"This album is a labor of love – a gift to those who share my excitement about the Christmas season and want to fill this special time of year with heartwarming, festive and uplifting music," said Mariah Carey. "This is the sequel to 'Merry Christmas' from me II you. On the DVD, you'll see some exclusive behind-the-scenes moments of the making of this album, which are yours exclusively courtesy of HSN. Hope you love the album and the DVD! Merry Christmas! Love Mariah."

Merry Christmas II You contains original material and holiday classics, including a re-record of Mariah Carey's original self-penned #1 Christmas classic "All I Want for Christmas is You," as well as her new single "Oh Santa," an undeniable holiday smash destined to top the Christmas charts for years to come. The new album will also feature holiday classics, including "The First Noel," "Little Drummer Boy," "O Little Town of Bethlehem," and "O Come All Ye Faithful." Mariah Carey has teamed with superstar producers. Music mogul LA Reid provided guidance and expertise. Mariah Carey also worked with longtime friend and musical director-producer extraordinaire Randy Jackson to create this new sequel to her first Christmas album. In addition, she collaborated with uber producer Jermaine Dupri (with whom she wrote "Always Be My Baby" and "We Belong Together" among others); Marc Shaiman, the award-winning musical genius, writer and arranger who did the magical orchestration for the entire album; and the critically acclaimed James Poyser of The Roots, who also worked with Mariah Carey on her massive album "The Emancipation of Mimi."

Consumers will be able to pre-order the album/DVD package beginning September 27 on hsn.com/mariahcarey.
