Chris Young joins Charlie Daniels Xmas gig
Gretchen Wilson also is slated to play along with Phil Vassar.
The charity event raises money for the Christmas 4 Kids Organization. Christmas 4 Kids has been in existence for more than 25 years providing many special children each year with their very own shopping spree at the Wal*Mart in Hendersonville, Tenn. Each child receives $150 in spending money plus a Tennessee Titans' starter jacket.
Funds generated by the concert, an auction and a tour bus show are used to give children from 29 different schools, a total of more than 400 children, a day-long shopping excursion. The special day consists of a chauffeured trip from their school aboard an entertainer's luxury tour bus, lunch, a party hosted by Santa and Mrs. Claus at College Heights Baptist Church and the shopping.

However, Young's voice is just too good to waste on mere pop. ...
Song selection can sometimes seem fairly inessential whenever chosen by a master singer. Such is the case with "It Must Be Christmas," Chris Young's new holiday collection. He sounds as perfectly comfortable with the jazzy "I'll Be Home for Christmas," where its supper club vibe takes a little of the edge off one seriously sad song, as he does with the Phil Spector rock nugget "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)."
Young is also helped out by a few special guests. ...
Chris Young has enjoyed steady success from his previous four releases, and there's no reason to suggest that "I'm Comin' Over" won't do the same. But that doesn't mean that Young is doing anything all that different from what's au courant.
