New Song To Benefit Charity- December 2nd !

With Members of Chiodos, The Rocket Summer, Mark Hoppus, Etc. To Be Released December 2nd... Proceeds to Benefit The VH1 Save The Music Foundation.


With the world currently in flux from political, civil and economic upheavals, former Early November vocalist/guitarist ACE ENDERS and his long-time friend/collaborator/producer CHRIS BADAMI (Dillinger Escape Plan, Midtown, Early November) have decided to take matters in their own hands and effect a shift in the mindset of fans and the music industry at large. Assembling a formidable bastion of musician friends that they have dubbed Ace Enders and a Million Different People, including Mark Hoppus, Matt Thiessen (Relient K), Kenny Vasoli (Starting Line), Craig Owens (Chiodos), Alex Gaskarth (All Time Low), Aaron Marsh (Copeland), Duane F. Okun (Socratic), and Bryce Avery (the Rocket Summer), they have covered The Verve's smash single "Bittersweet Symphony" (release date: December 2, 2008 via iTunes) in hopes to spur a worldwide positive change.

"'Bittersweet Symphony' has always been one of my favorite songs," Ace says. "I think it's the overall message of the song that made me want to do it." Proceeds for the single will benefit VH1 Save The Music Foundation which purchases new musical instruments to restore music education programs in U.S. public schools. "The VH1 Save The Music Foundation is such an great organization it just made sense to for me to work with them," Ace adds. "I think it's so important for the youth of today to be able to understand and be exposed to how powerful music is and how it can affect and even change people's lives."

An impressive collection of powerful voices and musicians in today's music scene, these friends of Ace's weren't an easy group to wrangle and took over six months to record due to tour schedules, etc. "Most of the musicians who are a part of it I have known for years or played shows with and have become friends with them," he explains. "Most importantly we wanted to put together a group of people who respect and don't take advantage of their importance in the music business and the effect they have on the fans who look up to them."

Recorded at Chris' Portrait Recording Studios in New Jersey by Chris Badami (Dillinger Escape Plan, Midtown, Early November), the release of "Bittersweet Symphony" begins the countdown to Ace's highly-anticipated follow-up to his previous release that was given free to fans. Due out in Spring 2009, the album will not include the single. "Since it's for charity it won't be on the new album," explains the prolific Ace. "The song's message about breaking from the mold of expectations and making a personal change has a lot to do with the overall theme of the new album."
