Jason Kelce Cries While Singing New Christmas Song With Brother Travis (VIDEO)

Author Nicole Michalik

We all loved the first A Philly Special Christmas album Jason Kelce did last year, but he really outdid himself.  In a new video, Jason Kelce cries while singing a new Christmas song with his brother Travis. The song is called “Fairytale of Philadelphia” and Jason got emotional recording the song. Talk about brotherly love.

Here are all the surprise guests that appear on the new A Philly Special Christmas album.  Talk about star-studded.

A real Christmas album with songs sung by our favorite Eagles players. Jason Kelce, Lane Johnson, and Jordan Mailata are the three main players featured on last year’s and this year’s album, but if you listened to last year’s album, you know they did a fun piece at the end with all the players basically reciting ‘Twas The Night Before Christmas with a Philly twist. It was fun hearing Jalen Hurts because he can play football, but he sure can’t sing.

A Philly Special Christmas Special will have 11 tracks, including a Jason Kelce original called “Santa’s Night.” Yes, an original, as in Jason Kelce wrote the song himself! How crazy that he had his idea to do this Christmas album last year, it was so successful that it ended up on the Billboard Charts, so he decided to not only do another album for this year but almost write an original Christmas song. AND THEN his brother Travis Kelce started dating Taylor Swift. I don’t think Jason met Taylor yet, but imagine if he went to her for advice on songwriting.  If you listen to the new episode of the New Heights podcast, Travis tells Jason he needs to go see one of Taylor’s shows and Jason says he would love that.  So hopefully we’ll see Jason, Kylie, and the girls at one of Taylor’s shows soon!

Jason Kelce Reveals Amazing Surprise Guests On Eagles New Christmas Album

It was teased a few months ago, and it’s finally happening. Jason Kelce reveals amazing surprise guests on the Eagles’ new Christmas album. We were so excited last year when Jason announced his idea was becoming a reality. A real Christmas album with songs sung by our favorite Eagles players. Jason Kelce, Lane Johnson, and Jordan Mailata are the three main players featured on last year’s and this year’s album, but if you listened to last year’s album, you know they did a fun piece at the end with all the players basically reciting ‘Twas The Night Before Christmas with a Philly twist. It was fun hearing Jalen Hurts because he can play football, but he sure can’t sing.

A Philly Special Christmas Special will have 11 tracks, including a Jason Kelce original called “Santa’s Night.” Yes, an original, as in Jason Kelce wrote the song himself! How crazy that he had his idea to do this Christmas album last year, it was so successful that it ended up on the Billboard Charts, so he decided to not only do another album for this year but almost write an original Christmas song. AND THEN his brother Travis Kelce started dating Taylor Swift. I don’t think Jason met Taylor yet, but imagine if he went to her for advice on songwriting!

The album will support initiatives from CHOP and the Children’s Crisis Treatment Center, which is who the album supported last year. CHOP will put its share of the proceeds toward its Snowflake Station, a pop-up toy store that allows caregivers of sick kids to select presents at no cost, while CCTC will spend its funding on its annual toy drive.

The $75 vinyl of the new album and $125 vinyl of both holiday albums will be available for preorder starting on Friday, Nov. 3. Check out all the special guests who are featured on this year’s album.

  • Some New Songs

    Jordan Mailata is from Australia and it turns out they don’t listen to the same songs as we do in America, including one of the most famous Christmas songs.  Not only did Jordan learn “The Christmas Song,” but it sang it beautifully, not that we would have thought anything less.

  • A 'Today Show' Exclusive

    Last year’s album was so popular, that the new album has gotten quite the buzz, so much so, that Lane, Jason, and Jordan were featured on the Today Show with Sheinelle Jones.  Fun Fact, Sheinelle worked at Fox29 with Mike Jerrick for years before she went to the Today Show. Sheinelle did ask Jason if Taylor would be featured on the album.

  • War On Drugs

    War On Drugs is a rock band from Philadelphia who have been instrumental in the creation and execution of both Christmas albums. Charlie Hall, the drummer from the band, is the main producer along with former Eagles player Connor Barwin.

  • Amos Lee

    Amos Lee was raised in Kensington and moved to Cherry Hill when he was 11. He graduated from Cherry Hill High School East. He was also a second-grade teacher in Philly until his music career blew up. He even opened for B.B. King!

  • Patti LaBelle

    Yes, the legend herself Patti LeBelle will be featured on the new album this year! We don’t know exactly what she’s singing, but we hear it’s a duet with Jordan Mailata. It’s so awesome that she agreed to do it, I wonder if made the boy’s pie and her famous mac and cheese?

  • Travis Kelce

    Jason and Travis revealed the news on the latest episode of their New Heights Podcast. Travis will be featured on the new album this year. How ironic that Travis is singing on a Christmas album, even before he started dating Taylor Swift. I wonder if he told her when they met. Hey, I have a record too. It looks like Jason and Travis have a song together, which is so cute.
