Watch Brett Eldredge serenade his beloved dog Edgar on Christmas

Courtesy CMABrett Eldredge celebrated the holidays in his home state of Illinois surrounded by family. Once the presents were opened and Christmas Day was almost over, he posted a video of himself singing while seated underneath his family’s Christmas tree.

Alone on an acoustic guitar, he began to softly croon “Silent Night.” As his dog, Edgar, slept beside him, Brett’s soulful vocals reverberated throughout the house as his family sat nearby and listened along.

“Sitting under this tree, I can’t help but think of how magical this holiday season has been…thank you for taking me on the Christmas ride of a life time and for letting me be a part of your Christmas memories…I love you…MERRY CHRISTMAS, sleep in heavenly peace,” Brett captions the video posted to Twitterand Instagram.

In early December, Brett embarked on the five-date Glow Live tour as part of the release of the deluxe edition of Glow, his 2016 album of holiday songs. In 2018, the project was re-released with five new tracks including “Do You Hear What I Hear,” “Silver Bells,” “Sleigh Ride,” “A Holly Jolly Christmas” and “Christmas Time Is Here.”
