Little Big Town kept their 25th anniversary celebrations going on Friday night (12/13) at their special sold-out Nashville homecoming show at Bridgestone Arena.
Just before taking the stage for the closing night of their "Take Me Home Tour" with Sugarland, their record label and management showed up in full force and presented the band with a plaque celebrating their 25-year anniversary, as well as 29 million RIAA-certified units.
2024 has been a momentous year for the band, with several groundbreaking firsts. Earlier this year, the band released their first Greatest Hits album. Consisting of 12 tracks that span the group’s genre-defining discography, the record features new collaborations with Kelsea Ballerini, Miranda Lambert, and Sugarland.
Adding to the list of firsts, the band also released their first-ever holiday LP, The Christmas Record, and performed a handful of them (“Santa Claus Is Back In Town,” “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas,” and “Glow”) at this year’s Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree Lighting.
Their first Christmas album with The Christmas Record, which came out on October 4, includes the opening track “Glow.” The 11-track record was produced by Dave Cobb.
When it was released, Jimi Westbrook said, “Ever since we started as a band, we have dreamed of making a Christmas record. We all love the traditions of the season and treasure the memories with our families. For our 25th year together, we finally made that record. We wrote several original songs for the project, and also recorded some of our favorites we've been singing together for years. We're so proud of how it came together and hope the fans love it as much as we do."
