Following the announcement of Amazon Studios’ upcoming holiday kids specials on Prime Video, Amazon is excited to share that the new song, “Christmas and Everyday” by indie rock duo, Best Coast, from the upcoming Amazon Original holiday special, An American Girl Story—Maryellen 1955: Extraordinary Christmas, will be available exclusively to download and stream on Amazon Music—both Amazon Music Unlimited and Prime Music beginning November 25.
 
"'Christmas and everyday' is a song about empowerment and love. We need to remind our youth and young girls that they are strong and capable of achieving whatever they set their minds to- on Christmas and EVERY day,” explained Best Coast’s singer, songwriter and guitarist Bethany Cosentino.
 
An American Girl Story—Maryellen 1955: Extraordinary Christmas is the second collaboration American Girl and Amazon and is based on American Girl’s previously launched BeForever character Maryellen Larkin. The special is set during Christmas in 1955 in Daytona Beach, Florida, where middle child Maryellen (Alyvia Alyn Lind) longs to stand out amidst the hustle and bustle of her big, busy family. A boisterous and artistic girl, Maryellen’s adventurous spirit is sometimes at odds with the era she’s living in: when conformity was valued above individuality. Through her gift of drawing, Maryellen helps give her friends an extraordinary Christmas they’ll never forget. Executive produced by Jane Startz (Ella Enchanted), this special is part of Prime Video’s growing line-up of award-winning and critically acclaimed Originals for kids and families—to see more originals available exclusively for Prime members visit www.amazon.com/originals.
