Twice a Top 5 hit for The Farm (in 1990 and in 2004), All Together Now has been re-recorded by a host of

music stars to mark the 100th anniversary of the Christmas Day Truce during World War One, the events of

which inspired the song. All profits from the release, out December 15th, will go to the British Red Cross

and the Shorncliffe Trust.

Artists added to The Peace Collective since the original announcement earlier this month include Julian

Lennon, David Gray, Clean Bandit, Leo Sayer, Paul Potts, Dionne Bromfield, Jona Lewie, Suzi Quatro,

Garry Christian, Matthew Murphy (The Wombats), Tommy Scott (Space), and Dave McCabe (The Zutons),

who join Alexandra Burke, Guy Chambers, Gorgon City, Gabrielle, The Proclaimers, Engelbert

Humperdinck, Holly Johnson, John Power (Cast), Jah Wobble (PiL), Jane McDonald, I Am Kloot, Shara

Nelson (Massive Attack), Amelle Berrabah (Sugababes), the winner of The Voice 2014 Jermain Jackman,

and The Farm themselves on the new recording. The track features a backing choir of sixty schoolboy

footballers from the Premier League and German Bundesliga, with strings and brass provided by the

Liverpool Institute of Performing Arts (LIPA). The new recording was produced by Simon Britton and Jon

Moon, and executively produced by Suggs (Madness) and Mick Jones (The Clash).

“Iʼm really proud to be part of such an important record,” says Engelbert Humperdinck, who flew to

London from California to record his vocals. “All Together Now is a such a powerful song, its message of

peace and reconciliation is as relevant today as ever. I hope everyone who enjoys the new version will buy

it and help these two wonderful causes, the British Red Cross and the Shorncliffe Trust.”

Adds Julian Lennon, "It is my great pleasure in continuing to support the Red Cross and to be part of a

wonderful charitable cause at Christmas. All Together Now celebrates a moment of peace, amid the

atrocity of war.”

Peter Hooton, lead singer of The Farm, says: “'I'm so pleased that such an eclectic mix of artistes from all

over the world wanted to get involved in the new recording of All Together Now. For me it's really important

that the real message of the Christmas Truce, of peace, hope and humanity is highlighted, and I think this

great new version of the song captures this atmosphere and the feeling of unity and togetherness which

was so evident during the recording sessions.”

NOTES TO EDITORS

The Christmas Truce

The Christmas Truce was a series of widespread, unofficial ceasefires which took place along the Western

Front over Christmas 1914. British and German troops ventured into ʻno manʼs landʼ, exchanging food and

souvenirs, singing carols, and, most famously, playing football.

The Peace Collective

The Peace Collective has been put together by the team behind The Justice Collective, whose re-recording

of He Ainʼt Heavy, Heʼs My Brother in aid of the victims of the Hillsborough disaster topped the charts

during Christmas 2012.

The British Red Cross

The British Red Cross helps people in crisis, whoever and wherever they are. We are part of a global

voluntary network, responding to conflicts, natural disasters and individual emergencies.

We enable vulnerable people in the UK and abroad to prepare for and withstand emergencies in their own

communities. And when the crisis is over, we help them to recover and move on with their lives.

The Shorncliffe Trust

The Shorncliffe Trust is building a national education centre and heritage park in Kent. Its primary focus it to

tell the story of the social impact that military life has on the men that serve their country, their families, their

communities across the country and those that were left at home. This will be done by also preserving the

onsite original WW1 training trenches, barrack houses, and the war horse stables.

About Barclays Premier League

The Barclays Premier League is the most watched continuous annual global sporting event in the world.

Last season 13.9 million fans attended matches with record average stadium occupancy of 95.9%. Across

nine months of the year, 380 matches are viewed in 175 countries with coverage available in over 650

million households.

The quality of Premier League football and the interest that it generates allows us to support all areas of the

sport. This season we will invest in more than 50 new artificial grass roots pitches in communities across

the UK and deliver hundreds of projects that focus on improving sports coaching in schools and inspiring

young people to play sport. The financial investment in this important area of our work will be £56m.

On top of this, the Premier League also invests in the Football League, the Football Conference and other

football bodies. Premier League football provides in excess of £1bn per season to the Exchequer in tax

revenue.
