On October 12th & 13th, 2024, American Football performed two sold-out shows at the El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles – part of the bands 25th anniversary tour for their self-titled debut album. Featuring guest appearances from Ethel Cain and M.A.G.S., these special shows were recorded for American Footballs first and only live album, American Football (Live in Los Angeles) . To coincide with the albums release, the band teamed up with Prophet Media and director Steph Rinzler for the release of a full-length concert film, featuring candid interviews with the band, Ethel Cain, Yvette Young, and M.A.G.S. Both the film and album captures the legacy and unexpected staying power of a group that helped define a genre.

After quietly releasing their self-titled debut album in 1999 while still in college, American Football disbanded after the albums release to focus on other projects, only to reunite 15 years later to a fanbase that had been consistently growing throughout the underground / emo scene. The album later appeared on Rolling Stones 40 Greatest Emo Albums of All Time list at #6, with Pitchfork giving its deluxe reissue the Best New Reissue title, calling it the most influential album in the genre.

American Footballs first and only live album, recorded at two sold-out shows at the El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles during the LP1 25th Anniversary tour.

15% of proceeds donated to the California Community Foundations Wildfire Recovery Fund.
