We LOVE seeing your creativity shine, so please jump in, sing along, cover, and remix these tracks to your hearts content —all we ask is that you include a link to stream or purchase the album or simply use the tracks on social media libraries like TikTok and IG to accompany your festive creations!

Our own Sam Riegel led the charge as Creative Director, working with Peter Habib as executive producer. Each of the Critical Role cast members lend their dulcet tones to these tracks both as themselves and as characters they’ve played across all the Vox Machina, Mighty Nein, and Bells Hells campaigns. The delightful album cover art was designed by Nate Gonzalez and illustrated by Adelle Kincel.

Winter’s Crest is a beloved holiday of Tal’Dorei (a continent in Exandria (the world of Critical Role) and the setting for Campaign 1, Vox Machina) commemorating the alliance of Kraghammer, Syngorn, and the Ashari as they bested the terrible ice elemental Errevon the Rimelord. Winter’s Crest reminds us to celebrate community and life during the darkest days of the year. Whether you celebrate like those in Tal’Dorei (with colorful lights and streamers, feasts and games) or whether you have your own traditions to mark the end of the year, we hope these songs ring in a wondrous new year for you and your loved ones.
