Not since Aaron Dessner joined forces with The Red Hot Organization and released Dark Was The Night, in 2009, has a charity record been as relevant and crafted as Brandi Carlile’s latest project, Cover Stories.

Adele, Dolly and more lend voices to Brandi Carlile’s latest project..

#CoverStories is just over a week away from being released, but you can get a sneak peak here, thanks to NPR Music. Hear artists like Dolly Parton, Adele, The Avett Brothers, and more cover songs from The Story and make music mean more for War Child UK!    

  Brandi Carlile celebrates 10 Years of The Story, with the making of Cover Stories An Album to Benefit War Child UK. 

  Pearl Jam turned Brandi Carlile's slow-burning country tune "Again Today" into a blistering punk track for the upcoming tribute album, Cover Stories: Brandi Carlile Celebrates 10 Years of the Story – An Album to Benefit War Child. The LP arrives May 5th via Legacy Recordings.

  Iraq "The house was completely destroyed by the bombs."  "My mother and aunt were in the kitchen, and my grandfather was with my brother in the hall and I was alone in the corridor."

Syria "She was always alone. She wouldn’t talk. She wouldn’t eat. She’d wake the neighbours with her nightmares. It was like the fear stopped her mind. She was too shocked to have a personality anymore"   War Child's child friendly space has helped Nour to overcome her experiences.

It's been almost a year since we launched The Story Campaign and, with your help, we've raised over $150K for War Child UK! We're shooting for $1 million and, to help us get there, we asked 14 of our closest allies to lend us their voices. We are proud to announce Cover Stories, a benefit album celebrating 10 years of Brandi Carlile's The Story. All proceeds go to War Child UK.  

Pearl Jam, Adele, Dolly Parton, My Morning Jacket's Jim James, Kris Kristofferson and more have all put their stamp on songs from Brandi Carlile's The Story for an upcoming all-star tribute album Cover Stories benefiting the War Child UK charity.
