Louis and the band are one of the best parts of the show, love all of them. Louis is such a wonderfully talented musician, and Nega on percussion lights up everything ❤
I love seeing Louis growing into his role more and more. Jon left big steps to fill, but this is just developing beautifully 🥰 Merry Christmas to the team!
How amazing is this band to be able to move nearly seamlessly from being lead by Jon Baptiste to Louis Cato and all the other amazing musicians on the team?
This performance is a prime example of how music transcends everything else and reaches directly into the heart. Everyone who took part in this hopefully feels a deep sense of pride for creating a magical moment.
I never believed anyone could fill Jon's shoes. I was so wrong. Luis, you are a master and I am moved to tears of joy from this soulful performance by you and the entire band. I applaud your ability to share the stage without hogging the spotlight. It makes you stand out that much more. Great music from a great band and a great leader. Thank you for this lovely gift.
So beautifully done- so inspiring! Such a talented band of musicians. Louis Cato is amazing! When I clicked on this… I had no idea that this was originally recorded by Stevie Wonder, 1960s. Listening to Cato sing immediately reminded me of Stevie Wonder. So I read through the comments and learned this Christmas song is indeed from Stevie Wonder. More praise to Louis Cato !!
Louis has such a wonderful voice and his spirit and soul come through when he sings. I work in retail and don’t much care for most Christmas music but it’s different when it’s done in such a way that touches my heart. Beautifully done and brought a little magic (and some tears lol) to my morning. 😊🥹Thank you. I wish the entire staff a wonderful and magical holiday break and will eagerly be waiting to welcome them back to my morning routine after the holiday break. ❤❤❤
This was beautiful! What a perfect choice of song! And the choir, that BAND, the solo riffs - it was perfect and the best musical gift of the year. Thanks, LOUIS, band, Stephen, CBS, all y’all! Merry Christmas!
Such a beautiful rendition! Louis, you are truly a transmitter of Light, and it is an absolute joy to hear everyone else on stage shine along with you!
Thank you. I had never before heard Lewis Cato and the Late Show Band perform a whole song. Thank you for a beautifully and tenderly sung Christmas gift to carry in my heart today.
Oh wow! That was so beautiful!! I don’t care for most Christmas music, but THIS is my new favorite. I plan to play this many times over the next two weeks, and in years to come. Thank you to the awesome Late Show Band and production team 💙🙏🏽💙
I just love this band so much ❤️. Louis Cato, what a beautiful soul. Keep shining your ❤️ love and light. Merry Christmas and happy holidays. We love you.
Thank you Louis Cato & the Amazing band. This filled me with such joy and reduced me to tears. Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas, Happy Holiday , and May Peace & Joy prevail in the New Year. - Jacquie Earle
I absolutely LOVE this song and Louis Cato and the band's performance!!!! 💚💜💙 I have replayed it over and over every day. Thank you so much for this...I really needed it this week/year! I can't wait to see you in the New Year...hopefully one full of ACCOUNTABILITY. God Bless you all!!
I never knew the band had such a latin salsa band sound to them! Wish I can see more of this band! Bravo to all the members and the choir! Beautiful job!

What a wonderfully true voice Louis possesses. I knew he was a talented musician, but I had no idea. Every day I like this man more and more.
He really did justice to the way Stevie Wonder originally sung this song.
I always loved Jon Baptiste but Louis is a worthy successor! Way to go Louis
I was there in the studio and it was just magical!
And he’s a good dresser also
What great sound ..
Louis sing it!
A 6-piece band that sounds like a full orchestra - love this!
Perfect choice of song for these troubled times. I admit to a few tears being shed here. Absolutely beautiful performance and arrangement. Thank you ❤
