Leona Lewis has confirmed the details of her upcoming Christmas album. The 2006 X Factor winner will release Christmas, With Love on December 2, putting it into direct chart competition with the festive set from Kelly Clarkson as well as new albums from Britney Spears and Rebecca Ferguson.
The collection’s lead single, ‘One More Sleep’, will be available to download one day earlier, on December 1.
She said in a statement:
“This has been such a busy year for me having been on tour, shooting my first movie and being in the studio.
“I cannot wait to get out there this Christmas and perform these songs. I had such fun recording this record and that really comes through in the songs. I am looking forward to spreading a little Christmas cheer!”
Two other original songs will appear on the tracklisting, entitled ‘Your Hallelujah’ and ‘Mr Right’.
Leona’s last album, Glassheart, peaked inside the UK Top 5 in 2012. Her previous two sets, Spirit and Echoes, both hit No1.
