Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce bring holiday cheer with new Christmas duet

The Kelce brothers’ musical collaboration first garnered attention in 2023 when they humorously personalized the Pogues’ “Fairytale of New York,” transforming it into “Fairytale of Philadelphia.” This playful exchange of sibling rivalry established them as a Christmas-song-singing duo, and they are now set to release another track titled “It’s Christmas Time (In Cleveland Heights).” This new song, which is part of the third Eagles holiday album,

A Philly Special Christmas Party

, was penned specifically for the brothers by Dr. Dog’s keyboard player, Zach Miller.

“It’s Christmas Time (in Cleveland Heights)” is a heartfelt tribute to the suburb of Cleveland Heights, Ohio, where the Kelce brothers grew up. This time, they are joined by the iconic R&B group

Boyz II Men

, whose smooth harmonies complement the brothers’ unique vocal styles. The song is set to be released this Friday and marks the first single from the third installment of the Philly Specials series, which has previously raised significant funds—$3 million last year—benefiting local charities such as the Children’s Crisis Treatment Center and Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. The album also features contributions from artists like Stevie Nicks and Mt. Joy.

This new duet represents the second original Christmas song crafted by the Philly Specials team since the series launched with Jason Kelce, Jordan Mailata, and Lane Johnson’s A Philly Christmas Special in 2022. The first original track, “Santa’s Night,” was written by Jason Kelce for last year’s holiday album.
Reflecting on the significance of this project, Jason Kelce remarked, “When I hear their voice, it kind of reminds me or puts me in that Christmas mood. And to be on the same song as them is … insane.” He also expressed the emotional weight of returning home for the holidays, saying, “You’re home for Thanksgiving, or for Christmas, and you’re like, ‘Oh my gosh, this place has changed mightily.’”
Describing the song, Jason Kelce added, “It’s not a complicated song, but I think the sentiment behind it is universal for a lot of people. It’s like an R&B version of a Christmas song.” His excitement about the project is palpable, as he emphasizes the nostalgic feelings it evokes.
The full A Philly Special Christmas Party album is scheduled for release on November 29 through Vera Y Records, promising to deliver more festive joy and musical cheer just in time for the holiday season.
