Data Insight

Not one of the ten tracks carries her name. Five are Christmas standards and the rest come from Charlie Midnight and the writers around him, so her first album is a singing job and nothing else.

Santa Claus Lane came out on Buena Vista in October 2002, a Christmas record made while she was starring in Lizzie McGuire. It sold 477,000 in America and is certified gold.
