May 6, 2010, 14 years ago
SG Records reports:
HEAR N' AID was a project created by RONNIE JAMES DIO and brought together 40 artists from the most popoular 80s metal bands (JUDAS PRIEST, DOKKEN, QUEENSRŸCHE, IRON MAIDEN, DIO, W.A.S.P., MÖTLEY CRÜE, etc.) to raise funds for Africa.
Today the best artists from the Marche metal scene decided to express their appreciation and solidarity to Ronnie James Dio by making a tribute to Hear N' Aid. All collected earnings will be devolved to cancer research.
The project is realized with the SG Records contribution and gathers 34 musicians from 13 of the best bands in the Marche metal scene: BATTLE RAM, BOTHERS, CENTVRION, DELIVERANCE, GUN FIRE, IBRIDOMA, INFERNAL POETRY, KURNALCOOL, RESURRECTURIS, SCALA MERCALLI, SYBILLA, SUN KING, T-ODIO.
Also, two historical artists from the Italian metal scene will participate to the project: Tommy Massara from EXTREMA and Morby from DOMINE.
The aim is to create a compilation that contains a cover of the song 'Stars' and some songs by the artists involved in the project. A video clip of the song 'Stars' and a "making of " video, that will be included in the compilation, will be realized in support to the project.
The 'Stars' recording sessions are finished, and the CD will be released at the end of June and concurrently will be arranged a live show to collect more funds to donate to cancer research.
