Album News: 7 Worlds Collide - The Sun Came Out

I recommend you click on that album cover above to enlarge it. It's fantastic! 7 Worlds Collide is a project to raise money for Oxfam International led by Neil Finn. It features a whole host of musicians working together.

They are:
Neil Finn ( Crowded House / Split Enz / Finn Bothers ), Phil Selway ( Radiohead ), Ed OíBrien ( Radiohead ), Johnny Marr ( The Smiths / Modest Mouse ), Sebastian Steinberg ( Soul Coughing ), Lisa Germano, Jeff Tweedy ( Wilco ), John Stirratt ( Wilco ), Glenn Kotche ( Wilco ), Pat Sansone ( Wilco ), KT Tunstall, Liam Finn, Don McGlashan, and Bic Runga .

Th album is a double and will be released August 10th. And as it's for charity, I really suggest you buy it rather than downloading the leak.
