WORLD SONGWRITING AWARDS WINNER AND FINALIST, INTERNATIONAL SINGER SONGWRITER ASSOCIATION, JOSIE MUSIC AWARDS NOMINEES SERVE UP AN ORIGINAL ALBUM OF NEW HOLIDAY CLASSICS

Asbury Park, NJ (November 21, 2025) Popular New Jersey rockers, Katye Kellye and the Interruption, announce the release of their new pop-punk holiday single, "How Can We Keep Christmas?". 

"Holidays are harder than ever, with many families separated by political beliefs and a realization that perhaps the ties that bind are mere biology, not ideology - or even values" says songwriter and lead singer, Katye Kellye.  "How Can We Keep Christmas?" gives a voice to those who won't be spending the holidays with people they don't feel they know anymore.

The track will be released November 21 on select streaming services, as well as available for download through Apple Music, Amazon Music, and Bandcamp.   Links to all streaming and outlets are at linktr.ee/katyekellyeandtheinterruption.
