Dan + Shay continue to spread Christmas cheer with the release of their second-ever original holiday track “Christmas Isn’t Christmas.” The new song follows their previously-released holiday tune “Take Me Home For Christmas,” both produced by the duo's Dan Smyers.

Shay Mooney said, “'Christmas Isn’t Christmas’ is very special to us. We wrote this song with our families in mind. We are definitely reminded around the holiday season how important it is to have those people that you love around you. Christmas really isn’t Christmas if you don’t have the people that you love around you.”

Just last week, Dan + Shay released the music video for “Take Me Home For Christmas.”

The duo will bring the new holiday tracks to several TV stages in the upcoming months including ABC’s CMA Country Christmas and NBC’s Christmas In Rockefeller Center.

They will also perform at the 2020 American Music Awards, where the duo is also up for three awards, making them the most-nominated country act this year.
