WE ARE A MOVEMENT

An Overnight Low continues its tradition of capturing the spirit of the holiday season with their latest release, “Low and Behold.” This collection of songs, composed over the past six years, embraces the joy and significance of both the holiday festivities and the winter solstice. This year’s tune is called “Fezziwig.” 

In A Christmas Carol, Fezziwig stands out as the joyful, benevolent master under whom young Scrooge once apprenticed—a man whose generosity, warmth, and care for his employees created a festive workplace where humanity mattered more than profit. But Fezziwig’s old-fashioned kindness could not compete with the harsher, profit-driven practices of Scrooge and Marley, and his business faded as theirs rose. Thinking about Fezziwig during the holiday season reminds me that his legacy isn’t failure but courage to care for people even when compassion makes us vulnerable. His story challenges us to look after those around us, to choose generosity over convenience, and to understand that the risks we take for kindness are what keep the season meaningful.
