Michael Ball and Alfie Boe have announced details of their new album, titled Together At Christmas. 

The duo's festive album is released on November 20 and will be supported by a UK arena tour in 2021. Trailer song Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas is out now.

The record features plenty more festive classics - including It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas, Mistletoe and Wine and The Christmas Song featuring Gregory Porter - and one brand-new original song titled My Christmas Will Be Better Than Yours.

Ball & Boe have become as much a staple of the festive season as tinsel, mulled wine and Mariah Carey; they're now on to their fourth collaborative record together released during the Christmas season. 

Their track record on the Official Albums Chart is strong: 2016's Together and 2017's Together Again both reached Number 1, while 2019's Back Together reached Number 2. Combined the albums have sold 1.3 million copies in the UK.

"Me and Alfie, together at Christmas, I can’t think of anything better!" Michael said. "In these strange times, we wanted to create an album of songs that we like to listen to at Christmas, plus a few surprises along the way, including an original song! Hopefully our fans will love listening to this for many years to come. This year it’s certainly going to be a Christmas we’ll never forget. Can’t wait to see you all on tour in 2021".

Alfie added: "Keeping the Christmas spirit alive seems more important than ever this year. We wanted to create a festive album that brings joy, love and happiness. Spreading the Christmas cheer is something we all need a little extra of during these challenging times, so however people are going to be able to spend their holiday season, we’ll be right here Back Together At Christmas with our fans who we are incredibly grateful for and can’t wait to see in person when we’re back for a brand new tour in 2021”.
