Kaiser Chiefs cover, Cribs release


The Cribs have announced that proceeds from their currently released cover of Kaiser Chiefs' Modern Way' will go to charity.
In 2005 the track was originally recorded and released as a B side to the Wakefield band's single 'Mirror Kissers'. Money raised from the song, available on iTunes now, will go to the Cash For Kids Action On Neglect Appeal.
The organisation supports neglected children in Leeds and West Yorkshire, near to where the group formed.
The Cribs are also due to release a new single from latest album Ignore The Ignorant. 'We Share The Same Skies' is out on November 9.

For charity download, The Cribs Cover Kaiser


Yorkshire lads The Cribs are set to aid charity with the release of a new cover Kaiser Chiefs .
Although they both hail from Yorkshire, there is little in common between Kaiser Chiefs and The Cribs. Sure, the Leeds pair may have begun life on a tiny indie but they quickly swapped that for novelty singalong hits.
The Cribs, meanwhile, have clung on to their integrity. Slowly building a devoted fan base with a series of celebrated releases and lengthy tours, the band were recently given the chance of working with one of their heroes.
Johnny Marr's work with The Smiths wants no introduction, and the Manchester musician's guitar playing adorns The Cribs new album. 'Ignore The Ignorant' is another giant leap for ward for the group, smashing its way into the Top Ten.
UK tour Spawning a lengthy our, The Cribs are now set to surprise fans with a particular cover. The Wakefield group are set to honour a worthy local cause by donating all proceeds from the new download to charity.
The band have chosen to cover Kaiser Chiefs Modern Way'. Originally released in 2005 the song was previously only available as a B-side, appearing on the flip of The Cribs single 'Mirror Kissers'.
All proceeds from the track will go to aid Cash For Kids Action On Neglect Appeal, which aims to help neglected children in the Leeds and West Yorkshire area.
The Cribs are also set to release a new single, with 'We Share The Same Skies' due for release on November 9th.

Kaiser Chiefs to the Hail


The Kaiser Chiefs want to show they care. The British rockers have officially joined Damien Rice, Gary Barlow, Rob Brydon and several other music and comedy acts as performers at the Concert For CARE benefit on Nov. 2. The event, taking place at London's Brixton Academy, will raise money for CARE International, which works with 55 million people in 70 countries each year to help raise people out of poverty.
A famous film and television composer to David Arnold, is the man behind the concert event. He said, "I have wanted to do this concert from the day I met a 20 year old woman in Rwanda who was orphaned at 14, is HIV positive and has to look after her two younger brothers. Without CAR

E's support she would be unable to keep them in school, feed them or keep a roof over their heads. I have asked my colleagues from the music and comedy world to get together to help raise money and awareness of the amazing work CARE does all over the world."
The Chiefs, who scored US hits with "Ruby" and "I Predict a Riot," are huge in the UK and will be an incredible draw for the event. The band's last album, Off with Their Heads, debuted on the UK charts last October at No. 2.
