Light of Christmas

For his second holiday collection, tobyMac emphasizes the festive side of the season. These 10 tracks are all gleaming surfaces and indelible hooks, overflowing with Christmas joy. There’s a sleek electro-pop finish, plenty of chimes and jingle bells, and guest spots too—from Owl City, Relient K’s Matthew Thiessen, and Leigh Nash. And though tobyMac keeps the focus on fun, references to the Savior abound—all leading up to a jubilant spin on “O Come All Ye Faithful,” a reminder of what the Christmas season is really all about.
