The project has been in the works for longer than you’d think. “Back in 2019 it started as a simple idea. An idea of bringing joy to fans all over the world by galvanizing a tightly knit fraternity of musical brothers. With the help of my co-creator @helenbromfield @abcnetwork @whitelabeltv , the production team at Film 45 and the entire crew, we took a simple idea and turned into a merry reality,” Erik-Michael Estrada of O-Town wrote on Instagram. “Can’t wait for everyone to see what we made. And hopefully, with everyone’s support, this can be the first of a new long-lasting holiday tradition.” Get the details on A Very Boy Band Holiday, including how to watch, whose tunes you’ll be singing along to at home, and what else to expect from the special.
