The holiday music landscape is about to get a fresh addition from a Palm Desert-based artist with a growing list of accolades and a knack for heartfelt storytelling. Award-winning singer-songwriter Gina Zollman has set the release date for her new holiday single, “New Favorite Christmas Song,” which will arrive Tuesday, November 17, 2026, across all major streaming services worldwide.
Award-winning singer-songwriter Gina Zollman celebrates the joy of belonging and the magic of coming home for the holidays.
Those who have followed her career might recognize the tone immediately. As Samantha Simmonds-Ronceros of NoHo Arts District put it: “There is something utterly charming about Gina Zollman. Not only does she exude warmth and a wry, insightful sense of humor, she writes beautiful songs.”
Also worth a look: Todd Netland turns burnout and gospel tours into a tale of fame’s limits and Denton Black Film Festival 2027 opens early passes with Questlove, Spike Lee tributes.
The new track is built around a theme that resonates deeply this time of year: the comfort of knowing there’s a place where you’re always welcome. Zollman’s song leans into the anticipation of gathering with loved ones, weaving in the joy of togetherness, family traditions, friendship, and the kind of holiday cheer that feels universal.
It’s an inclusive celebration, too. From aunts, uncles, cousins, and stepchildren to neighbors and newcomers, the song makes room for everyone in the circle. At its core is a simple but powerful message: the greatest gift we can give one another is making loneliness disappear. The playful imagery and infectious spirit reflect Zollman’s signature style—warm, witty, and undeniably fun.
Zollman is no stranger to recognition. She’s a two-time 2025 BroadwayWorld Los Angeles Award winner and a 2025 Josie Music Awards nominee, with performances ranging from Carnegie Hall to stages across Southern California and the Vancouver, BC area. Her connection to Canadian audiences runs deep, as five of her original songs have charted on Canadian radio—a particularly notable achievement for an American artist.
Those five songs were all co-written with Kevin Fisher, her primary musical collaborator and producer. Fisher is a multi-platinum songwriter whose work has been recorded by Rascal Flatts, Sara Evans, Uncle Kracker, Little Big Town, Diamond Rio, and Paul Anka. A former Warner Chappell staff songwriter, Fisher’s music has also appeared in television, film, and musical theater. He currently runs The Song Benefactory, his own music production company.
Gina Zollman is an award-winning singer-songwriter, recording artist, and entertainer based in Palm Desert, California. Her repertoire spans jazz, cabaret, country, adult contemporary, and original compositions, and she’s known for her engaging stage presence, distinctive voice, humor, and storytelling. With two albums already released—one of original music—and a third planned for 2027, Zollman continues to build a catalog that balances polish with personal touch.
“New Favorite Christmas Song” will be available worldwide on all major streaming platforms beginning Tuesday, November 17, 2026.
