The holidays have been hard for all of us for the past two years, and we all are ready to have a magical season this year. So, grab a cup of holiday cheer, light up the house with friends and family as Serabee's song "This Christmas" fills your heart on the living room stereo.
Sera's lush voice of pure joy is bringing us together once again. Reminding us to live in the moment for life is fleeting.
The song was written by Serabee and recorded in 2020 at Rabadash Studios in Covington, LA, where she and producer John Autin were working. Engineer Marc Hewitt secretly hit the record button to let the song flow as Serabee sat at the piano. It was an impulse moment that will forever be a lasting memory for the songstress.
After that initial recording, John Autin added other instruments to the sparse arrangement to produce its rich sound. Players on "This Christmas" are Dave Easley on Dobro, Nick Necaise on Organ/B3, and Lance Seymour on Guitar, and John added various sounds with Bass Guitar, strings, and bells, as well. Serabee did all the Background Vocals. The video was reshot at the studios, with Sho Hogg Productions overlapping images of Serabee roaming around the beautiful Southern Hotel in Downtown Covington.
Sera hails direct from the Kiln, Mississippi, with the wandering strains of roadhouse blues and rollicking revivals psychically embedded in her songs. Irresistible, pop, country, and R&B adorned in her soulful vocal presence and piano playing. As a singer, songwriter, and musician, the creative edge of Sera points to this soulful artist's deep roots and colorful background in the American South.
Sera began her career performing in New Orleans & Mississippi clubs, where she garnered quite a local following. The soulful songstress created two independent recordings catching the attention of veteran music industry executives. She was signed to major label Universal Republic and Sony, where she released an EP (Serabee) and had the iTunes single of the week, "Driving Me Stupid." She also became a finalist on the first season of "The Voice" as Serabee on Blake Shelton's team.
Since signing with Rabadash in 2021, Serabee is confident that this path will give her a renewed hope to carry her career forward. Sera hopes this southern, soulful direction will finally be the sound that her fans and the world will know her for.
Sit down, close your eyes and listen to the lyrics & the magic
