Boy Kill Boy To Release Single For War Child

Boy Kill Boy are pledging their support to War Child with their next single ‘Shoot Me Down.’

Released on November 13, all proceeds from the single release will be going direct to the worthy charity.

The four-piece are also set  to play a soon to be announced benefit gig for War Child in London.

Band frontman Chris Peck said: "Back in '95 I was lucky to spend a couple of months in Uganda with a home-grown organisation called 'The Ruwenzori Project'.

“There, me and fifteen others worked on an environmental programme in the Ruwenzori jungle which borders Uganda and the D.R.C. With this and through visiting neighbouring schools and orphanages I had a pretty up-close experience of war's devastation on the community, especially the kids.

"Those stories have since stayed with me so now I'm delighted to have anything to do with War Child and their long-term vision.

“We can't wait to play in support of the charity and to have our next single 'Shoot Me Down' linked to the project. Most of all we look forward to growing with War Child and being a part of this down the line in any way we can."

War Child campaigns director Julian Carrera added: "At War Child we love it when great British bands decide they want to stand up and represent the children we work with.

“Boy Kill Boy are another great British band and have had a fantastic year, and we are delighted that they have chosen to lend their support to our work - and to help us long term too.

“We're really excited the band has decided to make their single 'Shoot You Down' a War Child single too."
