Carpenter’s rise to becoming a holiday icon has been remarkable. She began her career on Disney Channel’s Girl Meets World before transitioning into music with her 2015 debut album Eyes Wide Open.

Over time, she evolved her sound with albums like Singular: Act I & II and Emails I Can’t Send, establishing herself as a pop powerhouse.

After, she released playful and heartfelt holiday EP fruitcake further solidified her ability to become a regular fixture at the most wonderful time of the year.

Sabrina Is the Present We Didn’t Know We Needed
