Good Charlotte, 5 Seconds of Summer and All Time Low have teamed up for charity to release a stirring pop-punk rendition of an ever-popular Christmas song, just in time for the holiday. The cover of Judy Garland's "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas," which was posted by All Time Low's Alex Gaskarth, features 5 Seconds Of Summer drummer Ashton Irwin, Good Charlotte's Joel Madden, the distinguishable vocals of Goldfinger's John Feldmann, as well as Simple Plan's frontman Pierre Bouvier.
Banded together, the collective have dubbed themselves The Holidaze, releasing the track for free download via SoundCloud in support of The Ryan Seacrest Foundation, a youth charity. The artists, however, have posted a request for donations.
"If you like this track, please consider donating to The Ryan Seacrest Foundation- a 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to inspiring today's youth through entertainment and education-focused initiatives," the message reads, followed by a link to the charity's homepage.
If we had to guess, the track must have been conceived by the recently reunited Good Charlotte, along with All Time Low, since both bands are soon to tour in Europe together (ticket information for which can be found here). Although Good Charlotte has not revealed official plans for a new album, the inevitable follow-up to 2010's Cardiology, the band recently released a brand new song, "Makeshift Love," which was accompanied by an official music video.
All Time Low's latest album, Future Hearts, topped the Billboard 200 charts earlier this year, selling 70,000 units in one week back in April, making for one of the band's highest-selling records to date. The band will perform in Milwaukee at 103.7's KISSmas Bash 2015 on Dec. 19 before heading to Japan early next year in support of the release.
