Mary Lambert has kept busy since she began sheltering in place last March. Now, she’s got a holiday EP, Happy Holigays, which drops Friday, and The Advocate has the exclusive premiere of her breathtaking holiday song “Seasonal Depression.”“If you’re alone and the snow’s coming down all around / Maybe your sad cuz this year’s been harder than most.

Lyrics like ‘stockings by the fireplace’ and ‘having family close’ and being cozy and warm, but then I thought about how different this year is going to be,” Lambert tells The Advocate.“How lonely for a lot of folks, how precarious, and scary.
