Madi Diaz has put out a new holiday song, ‘Kid on Christmas’. Nashville-based singer-songwriter co-wrote the song with Charlie Martin of Hovvdy and Carrie K (Noah Kahan, mxmtoon). Check it out below.
“I pulled up to Carrie K’s house in between tours on a hot summer day to write a song and for some reason this little melody had been bugging me,” Diaz recalled. “I had started singing it somewhere in New Jersey…the line came while I was trying to pluck it out on an old upright piano at my friend’s studio. It followed me all the way back to Tennessee and felt so inappropriate given the 100 something temperature outside, but the line ‘I think I could feel like a kid on Christmas’ was just sitting stubbornly in my chest. My whole body was craving a holiday.”
Madi Diaz up for two 2025 Grammy Awards: Weird Faith for Best Folk Album, and the Kacey Musgraves-featuring ‘Don’t Do Me Good’ for Best Americana Performance.
