YEREVAN, APRIL 30, ARMENPRESS: Revolution Harmony, a non-profit label
launched by British music journalist Ray Holroyd, will release an
all-star charity single July 18 called "We Are," reports Armenpress
referring to Metal Underground website.
The song features vocals by Serj Tankian of System of a Down fame and
the one and only Ihsahn, who was in Emperor.
The song additionally features guitar solos by my hero and yours,
Devin Townsend.
Composed, arranged, programmed and produced by Holroyd in Vancouver,
the complex international studio project was recorded in North
America, England, Norway and New Zealand, then mixed by Rohan Onraet
(Slipknot, Machine Head) in London, and mastered by Ted Jensen (Green
Day, Muse) in New York. The single also features Stefan Loh on
guitars, and additional vocals from the young up-and-coming UK singer
Abbie Johnson.
The lyrical theme in "We Are" is based on the concept behind
Revolution Harmony, which is essentially the belief that musical
harmony has the power to inspire a revolution towards societal
harmony.
The single is dedicated to Nelson Mandela and the memory of Lucky
Dube, regarded as South Africa's Bob Marley, and will be released
worldwide on Mandela Day, with all proceeds donated to Buskaid, a
charity that provides free music lessons and instruments to children
in the townships of South Africa.
