Aquabear Legion is an Ohio-based art and music collective that is celebrating its 15th birthday with the release of two compilations. Aquabear Legion Volume 7 will be a compilation of current Ohio based bands pressed onto vinyl, and Mother of Presidents will be an archival cassette tape featuring a wide variety of essential Ohio bands that haven’t been as thoroughly documented in a traditional sense.

WOUB spoke to Brian Koscho, one of the co-founders of the beloved Athens-based “no profit” collective, in the interview embedded above. You can support Aquabear Legion’s upcoming releases, or reserve your own copies, by donating to their Indiegogo campaign, which you can access here. The campaign is running through September 15, 2019 and the compilations will be released in late 2019 or early 2020.
