I had managed to avoid making any reference to the festive period up until this moment…. but when Cougar Microbes favourites Yoni Gordon and the Goods sent me their charity single I knew I would have to break that rule.
Yoni and co. are putting our a Christmas single this week. The A-side is a a cover of the Pogues classic “Fairytale of New York” which features Mr Franz Nicolay (of The Hold Steady fame) and special guest vocalist Emilyn Brodsky. The other song is a full band reworking of the 2005 track ‘On All Night‘
The band are asking for a five dollar donation to Feeding America for downloading the songs. Feeding America is a charity that partners with local foodbanks throughout the country in order to help out million of Americans that are going without food this season.
Get it here, Pass on the message and happy holidays from the Cougar team.
