As I’ve reported yesterday, while the rest of the band were doing interviews regarding the new Simple Plan book on Tuesday, Pierre was in the studio working on a what we heard was supposed to be a “special song”. And special song it is indeed!
It was finally announced by MuchMusic that Pierre Bouvier, Jacob Hoggard (Hedley), Fefe Dobson, Kardinal Official, Alyssa Reid and Walk Off The Earth formed a project “Against Bullying!” and together they produced a their own rendition of Cindy Laupner’s iconic song “True Colors”.
The formation of such project was caused by the recent alarming events of bullying and cyber bullying amongst high school students that forced the artists to speak up, stand out against it and raise awareness as well as give back by teaming up with Kids Help Phone.
The song will be released for radio play in conjunction with Bullying Awareness Week starting November 12th and will also be available on iTunes. A video of the song will also be released the following week. All proceeds from the sale of this song will be donated to Kids Help Phone.
