A supergroup featuring singer KT Tunstall and some of the world’s top musicians are to release a charity version of John Lennon protest song Gimme Some Truth demanding more transparency in society. KT joins a who’s who of UK musicians- collectively known as The Full Story- and their version of the 1971 track comes out on December 8- the 39th anniversary of Lennon’s tragic death. Money raised by the single- recorded live in one day- will be donated to the War Child charity. Find out more here: www.warchild.org.uk
The apolitical project is described as a musical demonstration demanding a more transparent world in which the public are told the truth.
