Katharine McPhee Celebrates Recording With Husband David Foster Again After 17 Years

Katharine McPhee and David Foster have decided to team up and bless their fans with their melodious voices after 17 years of not releasing music together.

A very excited McPhee took to her Instagram account to share the great news. The songstress revealed that she and Foster dropped their first single titled “Jingle Bell Rock.” 

This would be the first time Foster is releasing a Christmas album as a singer, the talented musician has produced some of the greatest holiday songs with renowned artists like Celine Dion, Mary J Blige, and Michael Bublé.

Seeing as the festive season is gradually approaching, it seems like the “Scorpion” actress and her iconic husband, Foster, have been anticipating its coming.

The “Country Comfort” star took to Instagram to reveal that she and Foster had recorded a Christmas Album dedicated to commemorating the festive season.

She shared a breathtaking picture featuring herself and her handsome husband. In the photo, the pair were seated in a room filled with Christmas presents and a Christmas tree that glistened with colorful lights. 

They elegantly posed for the camera as they sat beside a grand piano. Looking tantalizing, McPhee donned a black tight-fitting sleeveless gown adorned with shimmering sequins. She had her golden brown hair tied into a sleek bun and wore diamond earrings and a bracelet. 

“The Best Of Me” musician, on the other hand, looked dapper dressed in a plain white shirt and a black waistcoat which he paired with a matching black tie. 

In the following slide, McPhee posted the headline of a news publication that hinted at their newly recorded album. In the accompanying caption of the post, she wrote, “Super excited I got to record with my best friend again - first time was when I was just off of American idol 17 years ago - and the good part was he had to do all the work.🤣 I just listened to who I deem as the absolute best, and the rest was simple.”

In a subsequent joint post, the couple teased a snippet of the music video for their version of the popular Christmas song, “Jingle Bell Rock.” The gorgeous actress's powerful voice could be heard in the background as she blasted the lyrics of the song while the record producer, Foster, skillfully played the piano. 

In the short clip, McPhee and Foster changed into different outfits for their music video and looked like they were having the best time of their lives shooting the video. 

Captioning the clip, she wrote, “Our version of ‘Jingle Bell Rock’ is now available on all streaming platforms. Start off your holiday season with us.”

The “American Idol” alum sure knows the buttons to press to make Foster bend to her wishes. Per People Magazine, the “In My Dreams” actress, during an exclusive interview, disclosed how she coerced the “Wild Flower” singer into making their Christmas album.

She said, “I think I guilted David. I said something like, ‘It’s really crazy I’m married to the greatest producer, basically of our lifetime, and I've only had you record me on a few songs. ‘ Then he said, ‘OK, well, why don't we just do a Christmas album?”

McPhee further explained in the interview that they thought they were only going to release a couple of songs on Spotify. However, it turned into a seven-song EP creation and then skyrocketed into becoming a whole Christmas plan of shows and promotion. 

Her doting husband, who was also present for the interview, chimed in and revealed that he enjoyed working with his wife. He said, “It was really fun. There were a couple of songs we were talking about that we didn’t know whether she could handle or not, but she handled them like a pro.”

McPhee and Foster, who happen to be musical geniuses are proud parents to one-year-old son Rennie. Per The Blast, last month, the famous duo, during an interview, raved about their little boy’s musical prowess. 

The “Winter Games” singer, when asked if Rennie is going to have a career in music, took a subtle approach to address the subject, saying, “You know, when you look at somebody like Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf, their kids are very talented… but they are not tennis players, so we don’t know. He’s so young.”

McPhee, however,  was more confident in her stance when she said, “It makes sense that he’d be musical. He’s certainly obsessed with the drums! Or imaginary drums, for that matter”. She, however, clarified that they weren’t sure about the path their son would eventually follow.
