Mike Love Talks His New Holiday Album, "Reason For The Season"

Published: Nov. 29, 2018, midnight

Mike Love, legendary Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member and co-founder/lead singer of The Beach Boys, released a new collection of holiday songs, "Reason For The Season." The 12-track album features an array of new holiday songs and Christmas classics that range from bright guitar and horn-filled pop and rock and tracks, and softer traditional carols and ballads. Sam Hollander (One Direction, Panic! at the Disco, Train) and Steve Greenberg (Hanson, AJR) produced five tracks on the album. This marks Love's second recording with Hanson as they collaborated on the summer single "It's OK" released in August 2018. Grammy-winning producer Michael Lloyd (Dirty Dancing) and The Beach Boys' musical director Scott Totten also served as producers on the album.
