Passenger to donate profits from new album to UNICEF
By Andy Malt | Published on Thursday 26 March 2015
Passenger, aka singer-songwriter Michael Rosenberg, has announced that any money he earns from his new album, ‘Whispers II’, will be donated to a UNICEF campaign aiming to lower child mortality rates in Liberia.
Writing on his website, Rosenberg told fans that the success of his last album, ‘Whispers’, had placed him “in a situation that I never dreamed I’d be in”, which prompted him to make the decision to give up profits from his latest release.
“It’s so exciting to be able to work with UNICEF on such an important campaign”, he said in a statement. “Money raised from these sales will go directly towards food and supplements to help bring severely malnourished kids back to health, facility upgrades and maintenance, education and training for health workers in the region”.
The album will be released through Rosenberg’s own Black Crow label, while Sony/ATV handles publishing outside Australia.
