“Kid At Heart” was inspired by the way I still feel at Christmas time. It’s my hope that it makes others feel the same.” shared JP Pennington of Exile. “It was an honor to write this song with John Bizzack, who I have been producing records on and writing with for over a decade.”

“It was both a privilege and a pleasure getting to create a visual interpretation of this beautifully nostalgic song. “Kid At Heart” is a wonderful reminder that childlike joy can be found at any age, and holiday traditions retain their magic throughout life,” expressed video producer, Jennie List. “Getting to illustrate the message of the song through snapshots of the band’s own personal lives was such a special project of which to be a part.”

Due to Covid-19 and the song was recorded in three different locations. As the band described, “Files flying everywhere!” The only band member who left their respective town during the whole process was JP Pennington who made two trips to Nashville during the making of this project. “Kid At Heart” was the first recording they made where guitars, vocals and percussion were recorded first. Guitars, vocals, percussion were tracked at Tower Station Studio, Bourbon County, KY. Drums, bass and keyboards recorded and engineered at The DAWg Houze in Hendersonville, TN by Tony Cottrill and mixing and additional percussion was produced by Paul Scholton at County Q Productions in Nashville, TN. The music was mastered by Mike Purcell.

Since beginning in 1963 the band has had No. 1 hits on both the pop and country charts, achieving ten No. 1 hits on the country chart. Previous Christmas music released by the group includes their album Wrapped Up in Your Arms for Christmas in 2016 and “Happy Birthday, Jesus” released in 1995 and also recorded by Alabama in 1996.
