Every December, Among Legends and our friends in Rawls Royce organize a benefit show for the Food Bank Of Waterloo Region. Not only would it be irresponsible to try and convince a crowd to get together in a small venue this year, our venue of choice, Chainsaw, shut down permanently in the early months of the pandemic.
So instead of a holiday show to benefit the food bank, here's a 3-song EP that contains the only festive songs we know! Think of this as a nice big FU to 2020, and also a way for us to continue the tradition we hold very close to our hearts.
All proceeds from this EP will be sent to the Food Bank Of Waterloo Region. Every dollar the food bank receives is equal to 3 meals for someone in need. And with a year like the one we've had, food bank services have never been more critical.
2020 might've given us the worst Noel on record since the Spanish Flu, but there's still time to make some good out of the year. Enjoy these goofy songs - hopefully they put a smile on your face during the festive season. Happy holidays from Among Legends!

All songs written by other people but performed by Among Legends in different areas of Ontario.
Produced, Engineered and Mixed by Ryan Izzard @ The Music Farm. Ryan also stole the sleigh bells off his own front door to achieve that jolly bell sound you hear in Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town.
Thanks to Amber, Mackenzie and Lil' Nicky for helping us with extra backing vocals - you all sound beautiful.
Aaaaaand thanks to our good friend Vincent, who recommended that we try and do something fun for the end of the year, instead of sulking in our homes.
