Willie Nelson and Harry Connick, Jr., have teamed up to record a Christmas single to accompany their new holiday film, “When Angels Sing.” The tune is heard in the closing credits of the movie, which made its world premiere Sunday night (March 10) at South by Southwest in Austin, Texas, where the film is set. Also starring “Nashville”‘s Connie Britton, along with Lyle Lovett and Kris Kristofferson, the family film has many of the cast members performing Christmas songs on camera. Given the option of singing one of their own Christmas compositions or one from a list of festive favorites, Kris chose to sing Willie’s holiday classic, “Pretty Paper.” See the film’s trailer here.
