Rock & Roll Hall of Famer and Journey band member Jonathan Cain has released his new Christmas EP, Christmas Is Love, on November 4th, via Identity Records.

Christmas Is Love is a five-song holiday offering of original music bearing Jonathan’s legendary signature sound and style. Songs that are familiar yet unconventional as this EP paints a musical palette highlighting the remarkable story of the birth of Jesus in the opening track, “Hope Was Born,” and marvels at the miracle in “Who Is This Child” while underscoring the core message of the season sung with passion and heartfelt longing.

Christmas Is Love is rounded out by Cain’s Top 5 Christmas radio hit “Wonder of Wonders,” which was first released in 2019 and features GRAMMY®-nominated, Platinum®-selling Newsboys lead singer Michael Tait, and “Behold.” A song never before released but featured on Cain’s “Wonder of Wonders Christmas Concert” from the City Of Destiny last year.

This EP highlights Jonathan’s brilliant keyboard work along with his dynamic vocals that have been forged through six solo albums since 2016 and as a worship leader at City Of Destiny Church in Apopka, FL, where his wife, Paula White-Cain, is pastor. The EP is available at digital and streaming outlets everywhere via https://slinky.to/ChristmasIsLove.

Earlier this year, Jonathan released his acclaimed solo studio album, Arise. It resonates with joy and a profound sense of God’s power and grace. Beautifully crafted and a musical invitation to prayer. It is his sixth faith-inspired, full-length album since 2016.

It was an honor to interview Jonathan to discuss the vision of his Christmas Is Love EP, how he waits for the spirit of the song to find him, which songs he felt the lyrics were coming through him, why there are no classic Christmas covers on this EP, and shares a hilarious antidote on how Journey came across Steve Perry!
