Christmas to Christmas is the first Christmas album released on October 17, 1995, by American country music artist Toby Keith. His first studio album of Christmas music, it produced one single which charted from Christmas airplay in late 1995-early 1996: the track "Santa I'm Right Here", which peaked at #50 on the Hot Country Songs charts. A reissue was released in 2024 with a cover of Roger Miller’s "Old Toy Trains".

Critical reception

Roch Parisien of AllMusic reviewed the album favorably, stating that "The playing is casual, back-porch rootsy. It is first and foremost a collection of good songs, well performed, that just happen to be about Christmas."
