The charity project was founded by Marius Danielsen and Anniken Rasmussen. With an impressive all star lineup they will raise money for cancer research. After a long period of writing and recording by all artists and putting everything together, the album will be released on May 5th 2017 and you can pre-order right now.

Anniken and Marius stated:

We have seen this horrible disease up close. It seems to affect everyone in some case. For quite a while we have had a wish to contribute to the fight against cancer. Now just felt like the time. Ana was originally written in remembrance of someone who died of cancer. We wanted to use it for an even greater cause. However, we wanted to make a fight song, so we had to rewrite some of the lyrics. We are grateful for all the contributing parts and hope that we can make a difference.

The album will be made available as a digipack, to buy from the shop and online as well as download and through all major streaming sites. There will be two songs by the all-stars:

Ana written by Marius and Anniken
