J.T. Hodges, 34, just released a holiday single, “Joy to the World,” that he sings in the Hallmark Channel TV movie, “Finding Christmas,” that also marks his acting debut.

In “Finding Christmas,” JT Hodges performs the holiday song “Joy to the World” when he goes to an open-mic night at a New York City Club with his new love interest, Mina. Knowing Owen plays around his home town in North Carolina, Mina encourages him to play because of the people who will be attending from the radio networks.

Rarely does one hear a song on a Hallmark Christmas movie and be so moved that she has to hunt down the artist and purchase his song. J.T. Hodges was not only a talented actor in Hallmark’s 2013 “Finding Christmas”, but he displayed musical soul with his rendition of “Joy to the World”. I hope J.T.’s music star continues to rise, as he is amazing!

Finding Christmas (TV Movie 2013) – IMDb Finding Christmas: Directed by Harvey Crossland. With Tricia Helfer, J.T. Hodges, Mark Lutz, Cristina Rosato. Sean, who runs a New York City advertising agency, and Owen, a small-town handyman and musician, swap residences for the holidays.

The Hallmark Finding Christmas movie is really cute but JT’s version of Joy to the World really makes the movie. Either from the movie or from the MP3 download, it is wonderful and strongly recommend to have as part of your Christmas music!
