Ricky Warwick, the hard-rocking frontman of Black Star Riders and Thin Lizzy, is kicking off the holiday season with a twist, releasing a fresh, rebellious holiday single titled “All I Want For Christmas… Is Christmas!” Warwick is joined by two rock legends—The Cult’s Billy Duffy on guitar and Def Leppard’s Joe Elliott on guest vocals—making this track a powerful collaboration sure to resonate with rock fans everywhere.
All I Want For Christmas… Is Christmas mixes Warwick’s distinct voice with Duffy’s signature guitar riffs and Elliott’s powerhouse vocals to craft a Christmas tune that leans on gritty rock energy rather than traditional holiday cheer. The track blends the spirit of the holidays with the edge of classic rock, offering listeners a refreshing departure from the usual festive music. It’s clear that the song is intended to be as much about celebrating rock music as it is about celebrating the season.
In a recent interview, Warwick shared his excitement about the single, explaining, “Christmas music doesn’t always have to be overly sweet and polished. This song is for those who love the holiday season but want it with a bit of rock ’n’ roll flair. Teaming up with Billy and Joe brought the perfect energy to make that happen.”
Warwick has been known for his gritty vocal style and love for heartfelt, powerful lyrics. His intention with All I Want For Christmas… Is Christmas was to craft a tune that captures both the joy and raw intensity that the season often inspires.
The collaboration came together as Warwick reached out to Duffy and Elliott, both of whom share his love for a heavier take on holiday music. “Ricky’s vision for the track was right up my alley,” Duffy said, describing his enthusiasm for working on the project. “We didn’t want to create just another Christmas song—we wanted something with power, something memorable.”
All I Want For Christmas… Is Christmas is now available on all major streaming platforms, promising a refreshing soundtrack to add to your holiday playlist. With its raw, unapologetic rock vibe, this festive single is bound to be a favorite for rock fans celebrating the season in their own unique way.
For fans of Warwick, Duffy, and Elliott, this track serves as a gift—a chance to hear three rock icons come together, uniting their distinct sounds in a song that captures the heart of rock ‘n’ roll and the spirit of the holidays.
