“I remember when I came out with my first Christmas
album in 1984 followed by our first tour. Back then, many in the
music industry said focusing on Christmas just wouldn’t work,” said
Davis.
“Now, 35 years later, we are still going strong. I want
to thank our fans for making us part of their holiday tradition. Today
we often see multi-generational families join us during the holidays
each year.”
Davis founded his own record label, American Gramaphone,
which went on to become one of the industry’s largest independent
record labels. A Grammy Award winner, Mannheim Steamroller has sold
more than 40 million albums, 29 million in the Christmas genre.

Christmas album,
along with multimedia effects in an intimate setting.

founder Chip Davis makes innovative music inspired by the sounds of
another age. This former teacher and jingle writer founded the
