Vancouver, BC: Musical icon, Bob Ezrin announces that more than 50 of the country’s best and brightest young artists gathered today at The Warehouse Studio in Vancouver to record a song dedicated to the recovery efforts in earthquake ravaged Haiti.

The song, a rendition of hip-hop artist, K’naan’s “Wavin’ Flag” will be released in the coming weeks with proceeds going to Free The Children, War Child Canada and World Vision Canada.

“With the wealth of young artists coming out of Canada, it was obvious that this is something we had to do,” says Ezrin. “K’naan’s lyrics in Wavin’ Flag embody the pain, passion and determination of the Haitian people and lend the hope of a brighter future. The response from the artists has been sensational, and I am so proud that together we may help to make a difference.”
