Recorded prior to his 2013 stroke, the track captures Travis’ unmistakable, timeless vocals, offering listeners a powerful reminder of his artistry. The song reflects Randy’s heartfelt love for the season and its simple joys spending time with family, decorating the tree, listening to carolers, and cherishing the moments that make the holidays meaningful.
“’Where My Heart Is’ is special because it takes me home, and it’s from the vault. I recorded it before my stroke, so it’s a reminder of the blessings of yesteryear and the hope of tomorrow. Christmas time is a special time spent with family and friends, as we celebrate the reason for the season…hold those moments in your heart always. We hope you, and yours, enjoy my long-awaited release in the warmth of the Holidays with those you hold dear.” said Randy with the help of his wife Mary.
