Please help us to raise money for people across the globe who are affected by Covid-19. Whilst lockdown restrictions are gradually easing in the UK, there are communities across the globe who are still at severe risk. For £1.50 you can buy an uplifting song AND raise money at the same time! And of course, you can donate more than the cost of the song if you’d like to. In order to keep production costs down we have decided not to produce a physical CD at this time. The song can be streamed via the Bandcamp app or you can download it as a music file to play at your leisure.
“Rain or Shine” echoes feelings of solidarity and togetherness during the Covid-19 pandemic. It is an uplifting song of hope and sunshine combining powerful electronic music with driving guitars. It includes messages of positivity such as “Come rain or come shine with all the love that we feel inside”, “Gather round your people and face towards the sun” and “We’re so much stronger together”, along with pauses for reflection between verses and choruses.
It has been written during the Covid-19 pandemic to raise money for the International Committee of The Red Cross. We will donate 90% of income received* from sales on Bandcamp to The International Committee of the Red Cross following their “Covid-19 Emergency Appeal” to raise 800 million Swiss Francs to assist the world’s most vulnerable. Their appeal can be seen at :

Please do share the link to this song with your friends, families and communities. We need to raise as much money as possible to help those in need across the globe.
Many thanks for spreading the word and for your support!
*Only proceeds from Bandcamp sales (after distribution costs and transaction fees) qualify for charitable donations. Streams on streaming sites such as Spotify, Deezer, Tidal etc do not qualify. Proceeds will be donated on 30 September 2020, 31 January 2021 and 1 May 2021. Funds raised will be posted on social media. Purchases made after 30 April 2021 do not qualify for charitable donations. If the ICRC reach their donation target before these dates, then we will donate money to a different ICRC appeal.
