With the holiday season quickly approaching, Jason Kelce has given fans a teaser of his brother Travis Kelce’s new Christmas song. And it looks like Travis might just be giving his girlfriend Taylor Swift some unexpected musical competition. The sneak peek, which was shared on social media this week, features Travis Kelce showcasing his singing talents on a new track titled “It’s Christmas Time (In Cleveland Heights).” The Kansas City Chiefs tight end, known for his prowess on the football field, seems eager to embrace the holiday spirit through music.
“This is a song that came out of this great brain and I feel like it tickles the nerve that we’ve not yet [done],” said Charlie Hall, a musician also involved in the project, about Travis’s new song. Jason Kelce echoed the excitement, adding, “I also just think when Travis hears it, he’s going to be very excited about it.”
This marks the second consecutive year that Travis Kelce has opened up his pipes to spread holiday cheer. In 2023, Travis joined his older brother Jason for a duet called “Fairytale of Philadelphia” for the second annual “A Philly Special Christmas Special,” a charity holiday album spearheaded by Jason, a retired Eagles center, along with some of his former teammates. The charity album brought the Kelce brothers together in a heartwarming and festive collaboration, much to the delight of fans.
The 2024 edition of “A Philly Special Christmas” album, which will be the third and final installment from Jason Kelce and his crew, is set for release next month. The album series has become an annual tradition, showcasing the musical talents of Jason, Travis, and their fellow players while raising money for important causes in the Philadelphia area.
The first “A Philly Special Christmas” album, which was released in 2022, was a resounding success, raising $1.3 million for local charities. Last year’s follow-up album in 2023 surpassed the original, bringing in over $3 million to benefit the Eagles’ Autism Foundation. The holiday albums have not only been a hit with fans but have also made a significant impact on the community.
This year, proceeds from the third and final album will be directed to several charitable causes in Philadelphia, including the Children’s Crisis Treatment Center’s Holiday Toy Drive and the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia’s Snowflake Station. These organizations provide essential support to children and families in need, especially during the holiday season, and the Kelce brothers are determined to make this year’s effort their most impactful yet.
Jason and Travis Kelce’s musical ventures have become a beloved part of their holiday traditions, and fans are eagerly awaiting the release of the new album.
The sneak peek of Travis’s song, “It’s Christmas Time (In Cleveland Heights),” has already generated plenty of excitement, and the brothers’ dedication to using their platform for a good cause has only added to their appeal.
The Kelce brothers have shown that their talents extend far beyond the football field, and their passion for giving back to the community has made their holiday album series a meaningful endeavor.
With the third album set to be released soon, it’s clear that Jason and Travis Kelce are ready to spread some holiday cheer while making a difference in the lives of those who need it most.
