GRAMMY-winning global superstar Kelly Clarkson has teamed up with acclaimed country singer-songwriter Brett Eldredge for new original song “Under The Mistletoe” – available now via Atlantic Records. Co-written by Clarkson and produced by longtime collaborator Jesse Shatkin (Sia, Jennifer Lopez), the future Christmas classic depicts a budding holiday romance with a throwback melody sure to bring people together this holiday season.
“I love writing new Christmas songs that have a classic, throwback vibe. Brett is such an amazing singer and I was so impressed by his classic sound on his Christmas record so it was a perfect match for picking a duet partner for ‘Under The Mistletoe.’” – KELLY CLARKSON
“When Kelly sent me this song I was blown away by the soul and joy that it brought into my life the moment I heard it. I couldn’t wait to go in and sing it, and once I heard our voices together I knew we landed something very special. I think we are going to be singing this song for a very long time and I’m glad I get to do that with one of the best vocalists on this earth.” – BRETT ELDREDGE
In the past month alone, Clarkson has also hosted the Billboard Music Awards for a third consecutive year and resumed her role as three-time champion coach on NBC’s The Voice (to which she returned a sixth time for the show’s current 19th season).

ABOUT BRETT ELDREDGE:
Nearly three years after the chart-topping success of his self-titled, fourth studio album, country superstar Brett Eldredge proves you can go home again with his latest album Sunday Drive. Joined by GRAMMY-winning producers Daniel Tashian and Ian Fitchuk, he holed up in Chicago’s intimate Shirk Studios, where the album came to life. The wistful, piano-driven lead single “Gabrielle,” which was co-written by Eldredge, Tashian and Fitchuk, made its TV debut on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and has been called “a breath of fresh air” by Rolling Stone. Having added a seventh country radio No. 1 to his name with “Love Someone,” the critically acclaimed entertainer filled arenas on his first ever sold-out headlining The Long Way tour, which included performances of his Gold and Platinum-certified singles spanning four albums. His highly celebrated Christmas album Glow debuted at No. 2 on the country charts and featured the Billboard Adult Contemporary and Holiday Music Chart-topping duet “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” with Meghan Trainor. In 2016, the album inspired a single live holiday show in Nashville, which has now grown into the annual Glow LIVE holiday tour, hitting major cities across the country.
