Kimberley Locke

Season 2021, Ep. 217

Kimberley Locke’s first single from her highly anticipated upcoming Christmas album is an obscure one, originally penned by the Queen of Disco herself, Donna Summer with Michael and Stormie Omartian, "Christmas Is Here". The song embodies the Holiday season. You can't help but smile from ear to ear as you listen to smooth and sultry tones of Kimberley's voice. The lyrics will remind you of all the joy we feel and share during the holiday season.Here is the link to the lyric video to the hear the single https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zm23HYHE59g


Kimberley’s last Christmas album was a hit and she was touted by Billboard Magazine as the “Queen of Christmas”. Over the last few years, Kimberley has only released a single during the Holidays, but this year she felt it was time to go into the studio and put together a cohesive body of work for this Holiday season. More than ever, we can all use some Holiday cheer considering the year we’ve had. The full album will be released September 30. Kimberley is currently booking a Holiday tour.


Locke will also be releasing a song later this year with Dave Audé and Andreas Moss through Curb Records.

Auditioning for the 2003 series of American Idol® was a life-changing decision for Kimberley Locke. She successfully passed the audition and became a firm fan favorite, eventually placing third. Kimberley signed to Curb Records immediately after her American Idol journey, where she became a successful recording artist. She released three full-length albums, has ten Top 20 Adult Contemporary singles, five #1 Dance hits (Including one international dance hit “Feel the Love”) and was coined the Queen of Christmas by Billboard Magazine.
