Air, Beck, of Montreal & more contribute to Haiti Benefit compilation

24 February 2010 No Comment

heartohelp452Another round of artists is helping out Haiti with a new compilation disc, Hear to Help, available at American Eagle stores.  Vampire Weekend, Beck, Air, of Montreal, Grizzly Bear, and more appear on the album that features rarities, covers and remixes.

All proceeds from the compilation will benefit Oxfam America.  Filter and American Eagle worked together to assemble Hear to Help, and the lineup of artists is rather stunning.  The solid track list is below, and luckily the rather sparse Georgia Sq. Mall in Athens has an American Eagle, so grab a copy before they’re sold out.

1 Beck: “Volcano” (acoustic version)
2 Snow Patrol: “You Will. You? Will. You? Will. You? Will.” (Bright Eyes cover)
3 Keane: “Black Burning Heart” (French version)
4 Air: “So Light Is Her Footfall” (Breakbot Remix)
5 Charlotte Gainsbourg: “Dandelion”
6 Julian Casablancas: “Long Island Blues”
7 Black Rebel Motorcycle Club: “Am I Only” (ReMix)
8 The Breeders: “We’re Gonna Rise”
9 Vampire Weekend: “Cousinz” (Toy Selectah Mex-More Remix)
10 Noah and the Whale: “Love of an Orchestra” (Chew Fu Fix)
11 Camera Obscura: “The World Is Full of Strangers”
12 Minus the Bear: “Broken China”
13 of Montreal: “Take Me Out” (live) (Franz Ferdinand cover)
14 Busdriver: “Running Water”
