THE CHRISTMAS SESSIONS

In 2022, Haley Schattschneider began what has become an annual Nashville Christmas tradition: The Christmas Sessions. What started as a simple Instagram video series quickly grew into a highly anticipated yearly project that brings together friends, fellow artists, and professional Nashville musicians to celebrate the joy of music, collaboration, and the Christmas season.

Each year, Haley gathers a rotating group of talented Nashville musicians and vocalists to create fresh, thoughtfully arranged holiday performances. The sessions showcase the community and camaraderie that make Nashville’s music scene so special, while giving artists an opportunity to collaborate outside of their typical projects and create something purely for the joy of making music.

Over the years, The Christmas Sessions have grown from a small social media project into an annual tradition enjoyed by viewers around the world, with each installment offering a new collection of performances, arrangements, and collaborations. At its heart, the series reflects Haley’s passion for bringing people together through music—and her belief that some of the most meaningful musical moments happen when talented people simply gather in a room and make something together.

Today, The Christmas Sessions have become an important part of Haley’s annual creative work, combining her love of vocal performance, arranging, production, and community-building into a project that continues to grow each holiday season.
