Straight No Chaser Releases 'Social Christmasing' Deluxe Edition Ahead of New Holiday Tour

Chart-topping a cappella group Straight No Chaser are "Back In The High Life," kicking off their 2021 fall tour dates tonight in Minnesota at the Mystic Lake Casino. The group, who have built a name for themselves through their holiday music, today released a deluxe edition of last year's album Social Christmasing with two new songs, "Celebrate Me Home (with Kenny Loggins)" and "Christmas Show."

Kicking off tonight and running through New Year's Eve in Mesa, AZ, the "Back In the High Life" tour marks Straight No Chaser's return to their annual fall run following last year's livestream residency due to the pandemic. A yearly tradition for families around the U.S., Straight No Chaser's fall dates this year include stops at iconic venues like Nashville's Ryman Auditorium on November 16th, New York City's Town Hall on December 6th, and four shows at the Old National Centre in Indianapolis December 18th and 19th. A full itinerary is included below.

Starting today, a deluxe edition of Straight No Chaser's album Social Christmasing is available with two new songs: "Celebrate Me Home," an a cappella cover of the Kenny Loggins classic featuring the man himself and "Christmas Show," an original song written by group member Mike Luginbill.

Additionally, Straight No Chaser, known for their soundtrack to the holidays, have prepared a book of cocktail and food recipes, sharing their family traditions with their fans. Straight No Chaser Sound Bites: A Cappella, Cocktails, and Cuisine, a recipe book with personal family memories shared with the broader Chaser family and published by Red Lightning Books (a sister company of IU Press), is due out November 2, but it is currently available for pre-order on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Red Lightning, and on Straight No Chaser's site.
