Snowed In is the fourth album by American pop/rock group Hanson. A Christmas album, it was quickly released following the success of their previous album, Middle of Nowhere, and was recorded in London.

The album features a mix of traditional Christmas carols (such as "Silent Night Medley"), covers of Christmas themed songs (such as "Merry Christmas, Baby") and Hanson's own compositions (such as "At Christmas").
