Sia finds new home at Atlantic Records, announces Christmas album

Aug. 1 (UPI) -- Sia has signed a new deal with Atlantic Records and has announced an upcoming Christmas album.

The Christmas album will be the singer's first release under Atlantic after moving on from RCA Records, Billboard reported.

The release will feature original holiday songs written by Sia and her longtime collaborator Greg Kurstin. It will be released later this year.

"Sia is a once-in-a-generation artist. Her extraordinary gifts as a singer and songwriter, her revolutionary approach to the art of performing, her groundbreaking videos - everything she does comes from a deep wellspring of inspiration and imagination," Atlantic Records chairman/CEO Craig Kallman and chairman/COO Julie Greenwald said in a statement.

"Sia is that rare artist who has formed her own singular, boundless musical universe. We are so happy to welcome her into the Atlantic family and to be joining Sia on her amazing musical journey," they continued.

Sia recently finished the North American leg of her Nostalgic For the Present Tour and will continue to tour in Australia and New Zealand. The pop star is also gearing up to direct her first feature film.
