Michele titled the album Christmas in the City as she grew up in New York City, calling the season "such a beautiful time of year". She also said it was "always [her] dream to make a Christmas record [...] every single song that I picked [...] these are my most favorite Christmas songs."[2] Michele called the original track, "Christmas in New York", "the real anthem of the album", elaborating that "it paints this beautiful picture of New York, but it also is really about what it means to be with your family and friends and engaged in that holiday spirit".[3]
"It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" was released as the lead single along with the album pre-order on September 19, 2019.[4] The song included in the soundtrack of Same Time, Next Christmas (2019), a television movie in which Michele is a co-star.[5]
"Christmas in New York" was released as the second single from the album. Its music video was released on November 19, 2019.[6]
