The country star scores the biggest country holiday album debut of 2025
Brad Paisley is ringing in the holidays—and marking his long-awaited return with new music—with an impressive debut for Snow Globe Town, his first album of all-new material in several years. The project arrives as the highest-debuting country holiday album of 2025, reaffirming Paisley’s enduring impact and the loyalty of fans who have eagerly awaited his next chapter.
Driven by exceptionally strong pure album sales, Snow Globe Town made a commanding entrance across multiple Billboard charts. The album debuted in the Top 50 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart, which ranks the most-consumed country releases each week, and earned a prominent position on the Billboard Holiday/Seasonal Albums chart, highlighting the most popular holiday albums nationwide during the competitive end-of-year season. Paisley also claimed the No. 1 spot on Billboard’s Current Country Albums Sales chart, representing the week’s best-selling country albums based solely on purchases. Additional Top 15 debuts across several all-genre sales charts further solidify Snow Globe Town as one of the top-performing holiday album launches across all genres in the past three years.
With the project, Paisley blends his signature warmth, humor, and world-class musicianship into a collection of holiday songs that feel both nostalgic and deeply personal. The album showcases his unparalleled ability to tell stories that capture the full emotional range of the season—from small-town magic and family traditions to the reflective moments that define the holidays. Creative, heartfelt, and unmistakably Brad, the project marks a celebratory milestone for his return.
“Christmas has always been one of my favorite times to make music—it brings people together in a way nothing else does,” Paisley shares. “This album came from wanting to celebrate the nostalgia of the season but also capture the real, honest moments that make the holidays meaningful. I’m grateful for the fans who showed up for this record, and I’m excited to keep sharing music that feels true to where I am now.”
Paisley will continue celebrating the release of Snow Globe Town with a mix of national holiday appearances, including Christmas in Rockefeller Center special, airing live on Wednesday, December 3rd at 8 pm ET on NBC, special performances, and content throughout December.
