Bringing to the audience a completely new experience to one of the most loved Christmas songs of all time, Karine Hannah’s version of “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas” will immerse the audience into a soft and full of emotion atmosphere. You can exclusively listen here.

This song is one of the most beloved Holiday tunes, written in 1943 by Hugh Martin and Ralph Blaine. The song was originally sung by Judy Garland in the 1944 musical, Meet Me in St. Louis. It gained popularity among musicians, obtaining many versions of some of the most beautiful vocals. Karine Hannah contributes to that list with her soulful sound and powerful high notes.

The song opens with soft piano as Karine harmonizes with the keys. The listeners can feel the emotion in her voice, conveying an indescribable passion. She wishes her audience a Merry Christmas through her rich, alluring tone. Karine sings, “From now on our troubles will be out of sight/ Have yourself a merry little Christmas/Make the Yuletide gay/From now on your troubles will be miles away." Karine vocalizes a new level of passion in her voice, adhering to the same story of when the song was originally sung. 

Karine Hannah’s voice pairs beautifully with this wistful tune. It is the perfect song to sing along with while celebrating the holiday with family and friends or a loved one that can not be with you during the holidays.

HAVE YOURSELF A MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS

Written by Ralph Blane/Hugh Martin
Produced by Scott Chasolen

Growing up in Canada, and at the age of sixteen, her performance on a Canadian television show caught the eye of none other than Celine Dion. The world-renowned diva went on to ask Karine to perform at her wedding.

“That was really the start,” she recalls. “It was such an incredible moment, and I was driven to pursue this endlessly to fulfill my dreams as a world-class singer.”

Karine relocated to New York City. Within weeks of moving to the Big Apple, she linked up with none other than Jim Steinman (Meat Loaf, "Bat Out Of Hell”) and began collaborating with him. For the next few years, nearly every major label courted her, but she didn’t find a home until Cash Money Records/Republic Records/Universal Music co-founders Ronald “Slim” Williams and Bryan “Baby” Williams heard a recording from her in their lawyer’s office and signed her.  She is their one and only signed artist that is a pop artist.

“It happened at a time when I least expected it,” the songstress continues. “I’d been working so hard for so long, and then Cash Money came into the picture.” 

Their partnership kicked off with Karine’s incendiary debut single “Burning Up," co-written and produced by Josh Harris. Climbing the Billboard charts and making it all the way to number five. 

That’s only a prelude to what followed. Her next single co-written by Michael Jay called “Victory” landed in the top 10 on the Billboard charts.

Karine nods her vocal influences to legends such as Gladys Knight, Patti LaBelle, Jennifer Holiday, and as well as French and European artists she heard on the radio as a child. As a result, she’s got something completely her own and electrifying.

“I grew up with 4 sides of music...French, Canadian, American, and Euro,” she says. “I want to embrace all of that in my own music.”

Ultimately, Karine stands poised to capture the world’s attention with her voice. “I want people to feel something massive in their soul after listening to me interpret a song, whether it’s an original or a cover tune,” I sing from the soul, and I hope it reaches listeners.”​

To kick off 2022, Karine signed a new management deal with Heart Songs Music Group.
