Inspired by the magic of growing up Black in the ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s, TAKE ME BACK TO CHRISTMAS delivers a nostalgic Motown-inspired sound filled with throwback melodies, and feel-good energy. From Daddy cutting down the Christmas tree and Mama preparing holiday favorites to family gatherings and the anticipation of Christmas morning, the project captures a time when the simplest moments created the most treasured memories.

The EP features four original selections: the title track, “Take Me Back To Christmas,” “Greatest Gift,” “Christmas Time,” and a special instrumental version of the title track—perfect for setting the mood at holiday dinners and family celebrations. Elmore and Knox wrote all songs, and Elmore also produced the project.
