Lindsey Stirling discusses fond memories of her family's Christmas traditions like caroling and listening to Christmas music together.

Lindsey Stirling's family had a tradition of secretly leaving gifts for a less fortunate family in the 12 days leading up to Christmas, leaving small gifts and poems each night.

Lindsey Stirling's boyfriend Ryan inspired the title of the song 'Warmer in the Winter'.

When I was a child, we didn’t have very much to spare in the Stirling home
and money was always tight. However, every year my parents would find a
family that was less fortunate than ours and we would give them the 12 days of
Christmas.

Oh it was so fun! The 12 days leading up to Christmas, each night we would


sneakily doorbell ditch trinkets, goodies, toys and necessities to the family
we’d chosen. Dad would write a short little poem to go along with whatever
we’d prepared to leave.

We kids would all take turns and it was so exciting when it was my night to
help dad leave the presents at their door. He would let me set the goodies on
the doorstep and then give me a head start to run to our old Toyota van where
the rest of the family was anxiously watching and waiting. Then he’d ring the
doorbell and dash after me. We would grin from ear to ear as we’d watch the
family come to the door and look around in confusion. Then their puzzlement
would turn to excitement over what we’d left and we were filled with the spirit
of Christmas.

Each night the children of the family would get faster and faster at coming to
the door in attempts to catch us. So we’d leave our gifts at side doors and
use other creative delivery tactics. Who knew service would be so fun and so
sneaky. I don’t think we ever got caught.

My parents did their best to teach us rambunctious children that Christmas


was about giving; and that each act of service was a gift to Christ.

Thank you:
First of all I want to thank my Heavenly Father for the gift of his son Jesus Christ. This is a Christmas album after all so I did several songs
in an effort to show my gratitude for him. There have been times that I’ve felt broken and Jesus has helped make me feel whole.
Christmas music brings me back to memories with my family: particularly caroling to our neighbors (“Angels We have Heard on High”
was our favorite song to sing), and dancing to the glorious crackly sound of Dad’s Christmas record collection (we played the one with the
“Christmas Tree” on it the most). I want to thank my family for the countless memories and traditions that make Christmas feel magical. As
a side note, I made sure to have a song that mentioned PJ’s because every year my mom doorbell ditches Christmas pajamas to us on
Christmas Eve. To this day we have only caught her once. It is one of my favorite traditions.
Additional thank yous to:
My boyfriend Ryan for listening intently to and giving feedback on every single idea and demo (even though he doesn’t love Christmas
music). Also, he inspired the title Warmer in the Winter.
Thank you to Scott Smith for his ability to wear every hat and for his extreme patience. He was willing to put in countless hours and
sleepless nights and I don’t know how I would have done this album without him.
Josh Abraham for producing the album.
Cameron Graham for running the best studio in town and keeping us smiling.
Chris Walden for his amazing arrangements and for his patience with my ideas and feedback.
My managers Adina Friedman, Zach Felber, Ty Stiklorius, Jeremy Gruber, Rob English, Ashaya Robinson and the rest of FAW for the round
the clock effort to make this very complicated piece of work magically come together with a pretty bow.
To the other producers: Oligee, AFSHeeN and Josh, Marø, Stephen Anderson, and Jon
My writing partners in crime: Eli, Evan Bogart, Jon and Autumn Rowe, Brian, Cameron Walker and Jordan.
Jason Bernard & Caitlyn Lytle at Pulse.
