Brett Eldredge and Meghan Trainor Reunite for a Snowed-In “Let It Snow”
Ten years ago, Brett Eldredge and Meghan Trainor teamed up on “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” for his debut Christmas album, Glow. Few people expected it to stick around. It did, piling up more than 262 million Spotify streams and settling into the holiday rotation. Now the two are back with another winter standard, and Eldredge, who has made a second career of being Nashville’s Mr. Christmas, is treating it like an anniversary party.
Their take on “Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!” arrives with a music video, and the idea behind it was to make something that sounds like it’s always existed and also doesn’t. “I wanted to do something that would feel classic and new all in the same spark of a moment,” Eldredge says. He describes the result as a blend of both artists’ flavors, “one fantastic slice of Christmas apple pie,” and says he hopes it gets people dancing.
Trainor, for her part, is sold on the freshness. “I’ve never heard a version of ‘Let It Snow’ quite like ours,” she says, adding that Eldredge has “the most incredible voice” and that the song was a natural way to mark a decade since their first pairing.
The anniversary doesn’t end at the single. Eldredge is also hitting the road for the Glow: 10 Year Anniversary Tour, a 12-date run through November and December 2026 that takes its name from the album that started his Christmas run. The itinerary includes Boston, St. Louis, New York, Chicago, and Nashville, and he’s booked the kind of rooms that suit the material: the Chicago Theatre, New York’s Beacon Theatre, Boston’s Boch Center Wang Theatre, and the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. Expect songs from Glow, Mr. Christmas, and his newest record, plus a few of the standards.
For Eldredge, the tour is as much about ritual as nostalgia. “I believe in tradition and I believe it makes us who we are,” he says. “It gives us depth and soul.” Glow was his “Christmas dream,” he explains, and the tour turned it into something he and his fans could return to every year. Tickets are available through BrettEldredge.com and LiveNation.com.
All of this follows Merry Christmas (Welcome to the Family), his eighth full-length and third holiday album, which is out now. It’s eight original songs built from the kind of memories that feel lived-in, like a favorite holiday sweater. If “Let It Snow” is the party, the album is the fireside part of the season.
