DAVID FOSTER: "Christmas Songs"

iHeartPodcasts
About this episode

He's written and/or produced countless chart-topping hits, been nominated for 47 Grammy awards, (and won 16 of them!) He's "discovered" talents such as Josh Groban and Michael Buble, and now, finally, I was able to corner David Foster long enough to capture a podcast chat! 

David has recently teamed up with his gorgeous and talented wife, Katharine McPhee to record "Christmas Songs," a collection of timeless classics that sound other-worldly with Katharine's soaring voice and David's brilliant arrangements. 

Pull up a chair and come on in. You won't want to miss a single word of what this charming man has to say. ~ Delilah
