Bedouin Soundclash and Saint James Music Academy ~ Here I Am
Here I Am ~ Now Available On iTunes
The children of the Saint James Music Academy are pleased to be a part of a first-time ever release; famed Canadian group Bedouin Soundclash have released their newest single “Here I Am” featuring the children of SJMA.
The song was recorded last summer, 2010, after front-man Jay Malinowski was moved by a performance at the Academy. He recognized that music was a truly inspiring, and powerful force of change, and selected a song that he’d written for his sister to record with the kids.
You can see the behind the scenes here:
All proceeds from “Here I Am” will go towards the programs at Saint James Music Academy, focusing on providing children from low income families on Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside with a place to build musical talent, friendships and confidence.
To purchase the song, visit the Bedouin Soundclash Facebook Wall (and don’t forget to “Like” them while you’re there!).
