2002 studio album by Bright Eyes
A Christmas Album is the fifth album and first Christmas album by Bright Eyes released in 2002.[1] The proceeds of the album go to the Nebraska AIDS Project.[2]
"Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" appeared in the films Imaginary Heroes and Krampus, and "Blue Christmas" was featured in an episode of The O.C., entitled "The Best Chrismukkah Ever". Initially released only online as a CD through the Saddle Creek website,[1] it was released on 180 gram white vinyl in 2009.[2] In 2013, Pitchfork described the album generally positively, stating that it sounded "like a field recording from chilly church basements [in Omaha]."[3] It subsequently has been widely celebrated and re-released numerous times, including in 2023 by the indie label Dead Oceans.
This album is the 48th release of Saddle Creek Records.
