TO PERFORM
“BABY, IT’S COLD OUTSIDE”
DUET WITH MARIO CANTONE
ON ABC-TV’S “THE VIEW”
TUESDAY, DECEMBER 23
TRACK IS FROM HIS DEBUT CHRISTMAS ALBUM
‘COME HOME FOR CHRISTMAS’
With the holidays right around the corner, multi-platinum singer, songwriter and performer JOEY McINTYRE will debut material from his self released COME HOME FOR CHRISTMAS when he duets with Mario Cantone on ABC-TV’s “The View” Friday, December 23.
The track comes from JOEY’s self-released full-length holiday album of standards the NKOTB singer chose. “There are a ton of songs to pick from,” JOEY explains. “I think the song list came from a comfort level I have with them. These songs kind of roll off my tongue…or off my heart.”
One of the album’s highlights is the duet of “Baby, It’s Cold Outside,” with actor-comedian and friend Mario Cantone, who JOEY describes as a “powerhouse.” “I just knew a version of ‘Baby, It’s Cold Outside’ would be a hoot. I call him Buddy instead of Baby in this rendition,” JOEY says. “We both love to perform and ‘go for it,’ so it was a real thrill to see it come together.”
Other selections include the classic “Peace On Earth” on which he is joined by “one of my good friends and mentors,” NKOTB’s Jordan Knight, and a moving version of “Do You Hear What I Hear?” which features his sister Carol Gallagher, “with whom I sang my first-ever song on stage when I was six-years-old.” JOEY produced and arranged the album with long time collaborator Rob Lewis, which was recorded in Los Angeles, Boston and New York.
