When it comes to the key figure who masterfully fused country and rock to establish the genre known as Americana, isn’t Emmylou Harris the first name that comes to mind? She debuted in 1970, but it was the 1975 album Pieces of the Sky that brought her widespread recognition.

The sensibilities she honed through her work with Gram Parsons blossomed on classic albums like Elite Hotel.

It’s astonishing that an artist of her caliber has won the Grammy Awards 14 times.

In 2018, she also received a Lifetime Achievement Award.

In fact, she’s deeply committed to animal welfare as well, having founded a dog rescue organization in 2004.

Better Than SnowLaufey & Norah Jones

Norah Jones, Laufey – Better Than Snow (Live On The Today Show / 2023)

Let me introduce an exceptionally luxurious holiday number born from a collaboration between two Grammy-winning powerhouse singers.

It’s an original duet included on the EP “Christmas With You,” released by Norah Jones and Laufey in November 2023.

Rather than leaning on the romance of snowy scenes, the lyrics stand out for focusing on the warmth of time spent with someone you love.

The minimalist arrangement—just Norah’s piano and Laufey’s acoustic guitar—creates an intimate atmosphere, as if chatting by the fireplace.

Though a compact 2 minutes and 46 seconds, the softness when their voices blend is truly special.

By stripping away flashy ornamentation, the song conveys a palpable, human warmth.

It’s a piece that will gently accompany a peaceful evening with a partner or family—and will be there for a quiet Christmas spent alone, too.
