Under that Christmas Spell is the third EP by American singer-songwriter Tim Halperin, released in November 2012.
Halperin has stated he was inspired to make the EP while made nostalgic by a red Starbucks cup in the middle of a Texas summer.
[1] According to a review, "Under That Christmas Spell is a six-song album that intermixes original tunes and classic covers.
Halperin reinvented the hymn-like 'Mary Did You Know' by adding cello and redirecting the listener to the lyricism of the song.
In his rendition of 'Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas,' Halperin's sincerity bleeds through as his voice dances over minimalist guitar lines and dainty xylophone.
