Empire State Realty Trust has announced that the annual Empire State Building holiday music-to-light show will feature Carrie Underwood’s new song “Hallelujah” with John Legend, from her first-ever Christmas album My Gift.
World-renowned lighting designer Marc Brickman choreographed the festive light show, which premieres on Saturday, December 19 and will be synced live each night at 8:00 p.m. through Friday, December 25th. Viewers outside of the New York City area can tune in to watch the show live via Earthcam at esbnyc.com/about/live-cam.

“Hallelujah” is a new original track from Carrie Underwood’s debut holiday album My Gift, which released on September 25 and is available everywhere now. The Grammy Award-winning superstar joined forces with John Legend, to record the new track, which was written by Legend and Toby Gad. The 11-track album includes a mix of holiday classics and several new original tracks.
“I’m honored to be able to join the Empire State Building for this wonderful tradition,” said Underwood. “More than ever, it’s a time to embrace the hopefulness and joy of the holiday season, and to share that magic with people around the globe.”
