A Colbert Christmas Premiers Sunday

This year, a great American holiday tradition is born – watching "A Colbert Christmas: The Greatest Gift of All!," Stephen Colbert's one-hour original musical holiday special premiering Sunday, November 23 at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT on COMEDY CENTRAL.

In the special, Colbert is on his way to perform with Elvis Costello in New York City but is trapped by snow in his cabin in upstate New York (bear country). Luckily, his friends Feist, Toby Keith, John Legend, Willie Nelson and Jon Stewart stop by to help him celebrate the season. "A Colbert Christmas: The Greatest Gift of All!" features original songs written by David Javerbaum (executive producer, "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart") and composer Adam Schlesinger (Fountains of Wayne), who recently collaborated on the Tony®-nominated Broadway musical "Cry Baby," with the exception of "(What's So Funny 'bout) Peace, Love And Understanding" which was written by Nick Lowe. The songs were produced by Schlesinger and Steven M. Gold. Theme music and score also by Schlesinger and Gold.

Songs performed on "A Colbert Christmas" include:

• "Another Christmas Song" – Stephen Colbert

• "Have I Got A Present For You" – Toby Keith

• "The Little Dealer Boy" – Stephen Colbert and Willie Nelson

• "Can I Interest You In Hannukah?" – Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart

• "Nutmeg" – Stephen Colbert and John Legend

• "Please Be Patient" – Feist

• "There Are Much Worse Things To Believe In" – Stephen Colbert and Elvis Costello

• "(What's So Funny 'bout) Peace, Love And Understanding" – Stephen Colbert, Elvis Costello, Feist, Toby Keith, John Legend and Willie Nelson

For everyone in Colbert Nation, "A Colbert Christmas: The Greatest Gift of All!" DVD is the perfect stocking stuffer. It will hit stores on Tuesday, November 25, released via COMEDY CENTRAL Home Entertainment and Paramount Home Entertainment. The bonus features include a book burning Yule log, video advent calendar, alternate endings and more. COMEDY CENTRAL Records will also release the songs from the special as a digital album available exclusively on iTunes on Tuesday, November 25. A portion of the proceeds from both the DVD and iTunes will benefit the charity Feeding America.

Feeding America, (formerly known as America's Second Harvest), feeds America's hungry through a nationwide network of member food banks and engages the country in the fight to end hunger.
