LOS ANGELES (CelebrityAccess) – Singer, songwriter, actress, and producer Debbie Gibson announced the release of her first-ever holiday album, Winterlicious, set to be released on October 21. The debut holiday album will offer a mix of originals and reimagined covers.
To celebrate the album’s release, Gibson will appear on TalkShopLive on October 17. Fans can purchase autographed copies of the new album and ask her questions live.
This will be Gibson’s first album in this genre in 36 years, featuring a magical collaboration with her pop soulmate Joey McIntyre (NKOTB), who co-wrote the new song, “Heartbreak Holiday” for those missing that special someone during the holidays.

In 2021, Gibson released her 10th studio pop album, The Body Remembers – her first in 20 years on her label Stargirl Records. It is filled with a mix of modern pop hooks, club riffs, and tracks that pay homage to her earlier music. The Body Remembers all things Gibson stands for – empowerment, living your best life, and staying #EternallyElectric.
Gibson was born in Brooklyn and raised in Long Island, NY. Her 1987 debut album, Out of the Blue, went triple-platinum and launched her career at 16. The album’s single “Foolish Beat” made Gibson the youngest artist to write, produce, and perform a No. 1 track on the Billboard Hot 100. As of today, she is still the youngest female to do so. ASCAP recognized Gibson as Songwriter of the Year in 1989.
She has sold more than 16 million albums worldwide and released ten studio albums and five compilations.
