EXCLUSIVE: DebbieGibson throws her Santa hat in the ring with 'Winterlicious,' her first-ever holiday album
“I’m definitely a lover of the festive spirit at holiday time,” Gibson says, with one of her ever-charming laughs. “I’m the person who starts playing the holiday stations at Thanksgiving, but now it’s been creeping into Halloween — the pumpkins get thrown out, and the holiday music starts. With, I wanted this album to be festive, but to have some depth and some Christmas balls.”has the Hannukah celebration “Illuminate” and her McIntyre duet. “Joey Mac’s such a gracious guy,” she says.
Gibson’s Daddy Joe joins her for “White Christmas.” “I was always a sucker for a daddy/daughter duet,” she says. “Like hearing Nat King Cole and Natalie Cole together. I’m so glad, especially in light of losing my mom this year, that my dad and I got this etched in vinyl for all eternity.” Gibson just performed three sold-out shows in New York City to celebrate the 35th Anniversary of her evergreen 1987 debut “Out of the Blue,” one of the Eighties’ true pop landmarks. It has some of her best-known hits but also deep cuts like the great ballad “Between the Lines.” So Winterlicious seems like a victory lap for her and her fans. As she says, “Most people don’t have this moment once, and I’m having it twice. So now it’s exceeding my wildest expectations.
