Pressemitteilung: Angels & Airwaves - teilen neuen Song "All That's Left Is Love" / Erlöse gehen an Feeding America

ANGELS & AIRWAVES um Frontmann Tom DeLonge veröffentlichen mit "All That’s Left Is Love“ einen neuen Song, dessen gesamter Erlös an "Feeding America" geht.  Die gemeinnützige Organisation kämpft in den USA gegen Hunger und Not. 

Stream - "All That’s Left Is Love"

Die Band kommentiert:

"Friends- As we are all stuck at home and watching these unfortunate world events unfold, we couldn’t help but notice little glimmers of light showing across the globe- revealing the positive side of humanity that sometimes gets lost in our day-to-day lives. That, ULTIMATELY, is what this band has been about since day 1- HOPE. With all of that in mind, we decided to channel our feelings into a song- of which all proceeds will go to benefit Feeding America’s Covid-19 Response Fund."

Letztes Jahr gaben die Amerikaner die Zusammenarbeit mit Rise Records/BMG bekannt und präsentierten mit "Rebel Girl" und "Kiss & Tell" zwei neue Songs, die bereits jetzt mehr als 27 Millionen Streams generierten. Aktuell arbeitet die Band an einem neuen Album.

DeLonge, Gründungsmitglied der wegweisenden Pop-Punk-Band BLINK-182, gründete ANGELS & AIRWAVES 2005. Ein Jahr später erschien das Debütalbum "We Don't Need To Whisper", das in den Billboard 200 auf Platz 4 landete und den Top 5-Rockhit "The Adventure" hervorbrachte. 2007 folgte "I-Empire" und erreichte Platz 9 in den Billboard 200. Darauf enthalten war u.a. der Song "Everything's Magic", der große Begeisterung bei den Rockradios auslöste. Im Jahr 2010 veröffentlichte die Band "Love" und ein Jahr später "Love: Part Two", begleitet von dem Film "Love", der bundesweit in 460 Kinos im Rahmen eines One-Night-Screenings zu sehen war und von Kritikern hoch gelobt wurde. Zudem gab es das Konzert "Love Live", das als Live-Stream weltweit zu sehen war. Das letzte veröffentlichte Album der Band war das 2014er Album "The Dream Walker", das bei iTunes auf Platz 1 und bei Billboards Top Alternative Albums auf Platz 5 landete. Doch es war viel mehr als "nur" ein Album, sondern mehr ein Multimedia-Projekt mit einem Graphic Novel, Comics und einem Kurzfilm ala "Blade Runner-trifft-auf-Harry Potter", der beim Toronto International Short Film Festival den Award für die beste Animation erhielt.

It has been reported that in the USA, over 37 million people struggle with hunger.  The Covid-19 crisis means that 'Feeding America' - the nations largest hunger relief organisation, predicts there could be an increase of 46% in those at risk of hunger.  Because of this, the band are teaming up with the charity and will see them donating proceeds from 'All That’s Left Is Love' to them.  They will also be launching an exclusive charity t-shirt that will benefit the organisation.

-----------------------------
DeLonge, a founding member of seminal pop punk band Blink-182, formed ANGELS & AIRWAVES in 2005. A year later came debut album We Don’t Need To Whisper, which hit No. 4 on The Billboard 200 and featured Top 5 modern rock hit “The Adventure.” 2007’s I-Empire followed, hitting No. 9 on The Billboard 200 and featured rock radio hit “Everything’s Magic.” In 2010, AVA released Love and a year later, Love: Part Two accompanied by a critically acclaimed film, Love, which was shown in 460 theatres nationwide during a one-night film screening and live-streamed concert event titled Love Live. The band’s last full-length album was 2014’s The Dream Walker, which hit No. 1 on iTunes and No. 5 on Billboard’s Top Alternative Albums chart.  A multimedia project, the album was accompanied by a graphic novel, comic books and a Blade Runner-meets Harry Potter short film, which won Best Animation at the Toronto International Short Film Festival.  

In addition to his work with ANGELS & AIRWAVES, DeLonge created 'To The Stars', a multimedia entertainment company that creates original content across music, film, television, and publishing.  To The Stars' content plays an essential role DeLonge’s 'To The Stars Academy of Arts & Science', a think tank of artists, scientists, intelligence officers and technology experts that explore, engineer and educate the public about unexplained scientific phenomena. DeLonge currently has a television series (“Strange Times”) in development at TBS and is executive-producing a 6 part docu-series on The History Channel titled “Unidentified: Inside America’s UFO Investigation." He has composed music for both.

“After my kids, music has and will always be the most important thing in my life,” says DeLonge. “It’s given me everything - every opportunity and every relationship I have. There is no stronger art form than rock ‘n’ roll to deliver a galvanising message and at the end of the day, change lives.”

ANGELS & AIRWAVES are vocalist/guitarist Tom DeLonge, guitarist David Kennedy and drummer Ilan Rubin, joined by touring bassist Matt Rubano.
