This holiday song arrived as an unexpected gift to MAKIE in the middle of summer—an idea that quickly took shape as a nostalgic celebration of Christmas joy. Inspired by the warmth and innocence of 1940s holiday classics, “Good Old Fashioned Christmas” places family and the true meaning of the season at center stage.
Rooted in tradition, the track reflects on what endures beyond the decorations and gifts. While toys and trinkets may fade, the moments we share—and the memories we carry—are what last in the heart.
“This song truly felt like a gift from heaven when it came to me,” MAKIE shares. “I wanted it to feel timeless—full of warmth, nostalgia, and the kind of joy that comes from being together. Christmas traditions matter because they remind us of what lasts.”
MAKIE was honored to debut the song with a performance at the Chick-fil-A headquarters Christmas Devotional, shared alongside the founding family and CEO Bubba Cathy and Cindy Cathy—a fitting setting for a song centered on faith, family, and togetherness.
