Kacey Musgraves, Kane Brown, Lainey Wilson, & More Gather To Celebrate The Holiday Season On First Christmas At Graceland TV Special
Elvis Presley loved the Christmas season. He recorded many Christmas songs over his career, including “Blue Christmas, ” “Here Comes Santa Claus,” and “O Little Town of Bethlehem.”
Today, Elvis’ Graceland estate continues to share the Christmas spirit by going all-out with its holiday decorations. In 2022, Graceland was named the #1 “Best Holiday Historic Home Tour” by the USA Today 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards.
Elvis’ granddaughter, Riley Keough, is helping Graceland spread even more Christmas cheer this year by producing a new televised holiday special. Called Christmas at Graceland, the special aired on Wednesday night (November 29) at 10 PM ET, immediately after the Christmas in Rockefeller Center special on NBC.
The lineup included artists such as Kane Brown, reigning CMA Entertainer of the Year Lainey Wilson, Post Malone, the War and Treaty, John Legend, and Kacey Musgraves.
Kacey Is No Stranger To Singing Holiday Music – She Released A Christmas Album In 2016
In Kacey’s case, she has plenty of experience singing Christmas music. She released a Christmas album, A Very Kacey Christmas, in 2016.
The 12-track album contains a mix of covers and originals. Kacey shared her renditions of classics such as “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” and “Feliz Navidad,” to name a few.
One of the original songs on the record is a collaboration with Willie Nelson, fittingly called “A Willie Nice Christmas.”
A Very Kacey Christmas was a huge success upon its release. It reached the ninth spot on the Top Holiday Albums chart and claimed the 21st slot on the all-genre Billboard 200.
Watch Kacey Musgraves Perform During The Christmas At Graceland TV Special
With a nice bunch of Christmas songs in her catalog, fans wondered what Kacey would perform during her appearance on Christmas at Graceland. She ended up singing “Can’t Help Falling In Love.”
Kacey’s performance began in the entryway of Graceland, as she signed a holiday card before walking to the porch to perform Presley’s iconic love song. After she delivered her heavenly performance, she got into Presley’s iconic pink 1955 Cadillac Fleetwood Sixty Special and drove away.
It should come as no surprise to fans that she performed this song, seeing as she recorded it for the Baz Luhrmann film Elvis.
