As a child, Daniel Tashian was introduced to Johnny Marks ("Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer," "Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree," "A Holly Jolly Christmas"), a holiday music legend who happened to play chess with his grandfather at a local Rotary Club in his hometown of Westport, CT. That introduction sparked a lifelong love of Christmas music from age six. Now, Tashian, who began writing songs as a teenager, is 10 years into writing Christmas songs with six recorded by artists like Kacey Musgraves ("Glittery feat. Troye Sivan"), Tim McGraw (“Christmas All Over The World”), Tenille Townes ("One in a Million") Jessie James Decker (“Baby! It’s Christmas”) and more.

Now, the GRAMMY-winning songwriter and producer known for helping artists like Kacey Musgraves, Birdy, Brett Eldredge, Lily & Madeleine and Lucie Silvas develop their one-of-a-kind sounds, announces ‘It’s a Snow Globe World,’ a 5-song Christmas collection featuring collaborations with Rita Wilson, Karen Elson, Patty Griffin and Sarah Buxton, out November 5th via Big Yellow Dog Music. The EP represents the culmination of a lifetime of writing Christmas songs for Tashian.
