Today, the team behind Together For Palestine – the sold-out Wembley concert that raised over £2 million – announces a charity single “Lullaby” that will be released on 12th December via T4P Records and distributed by Empire XX.
This powerful and emotive reimagining of a traditional Palestinian lullaby sees over 15 UK and Palestinian artists come together to send a message of hope and solidarity to the very place where the Christmas story began. For this release, Together For Palestine have a bold aim: to reach Christmas #1 and raise urgent, life-saving funds for Gaza’s children affected by the ongoing bombardment and genocide in Gaza.
The new single was produced by Benji B, Kieran Brunt and Henri Davies, with arrangements by Kieran Brunt and Nai Barghouti, additional lyrics by Mahmoud Darwish and English lyrics written by Peter Gabriel.
The track includes Amena El Abd, Brian Eno, Celeste, Dan Smith (Bastille), Kieran Brunt, Lana Lubany, Leigh-Anne, London Community Gospel Choir, Mabel, Nadine Shah, Nai Barghouti, Neneh Cherry, Sura Abdo, TYSON, Yasmeen Ayyashi and Ysee. The official single artwork was created by visionary Gazan painter Malak Mattar, and inspired by her piece ‘Shelter’ with additional artwork by Cameron JL West.
Fans are urged to pre-order the single (available on BandCamp, iTunes or Amazon) as every purchase of the single sees direct funds donated to these important organisations as well as driving the song towards Christmas #1. Bandcamp and iTunes also allows users to buy the song as a gift – allowing fans to share the beautiful single far and wide – the perfect present at this time of year. Fans are also able to pre-save the single on their favourite streaming platform and stream from 12th December.
Every penny raised from the release will go to Choose Love’s Together For Palestine Fund supporting three Palestinian-led organisations Taawon, Palestine Children’s Relief Fund and Palestine Medical Relief Service.
