Various Artists - HELP(2)
Released 6th March 2026
HELP(2) is a brand new collaborative album, inspired by the landmark 1995 release 'HELP', which brings music lovers together in support of War Child's vital work delivering immediate aid, education, specialist mental health support, and protection to children affected by conflict around the world. The new album, like the original, speaks to the urgency of the situation for the 1 in 5 children globally living through war today. Recorded in a single day, the original ‘HELP’ album raised over £1.2 million, enabling the charity to provide vital support to thousands of children caught in the Bosnian conflict, and was hailed as “the best charity album ever made” by critics.
HELP(2) carries forward the spirit of the original ‘HELP’ album and was recorded (predominantly), thanks to their generosity, at Abbey Road Studios, across one special week in November 2025. Under the stewardship of acclaimed producer James Ford, HELP(2) features an incredible line-up of contributors including Anna Calvi, Arctic Monkeys, Arlo Parks, Arooj Aftab, Bat For Lashes, Beabadoobee, Beck, Beth Gibbons, Big Thief, Black Country, New Road, Cameron Winter, Damon Albarn, Depeche Mode, Dove Ellis, Ellie Rowsell, English Teacher, Ezra Collective, Foals, Fontaines D.C., Graham Coxon, Greentea Peng, Grian Chatten, Kae Tempest, King Krule, Nilüfer Yanya, Olivia Rodrigo, Pulp, Sampha, The Last Dinner Party, Wet Leg and Young Fathers…amongst other musicians, engineers, mixers and producers.
In addition to the stellar cast of musicians involved, renowned filmmaker Jonathan Glazer and his team at Academy Films generously helmed the Creative Direction for HELP(2), overseeing both the filming and art direction for the project.
All proceeds from this album support War Child UK to protect, educate, and stand up for the rights of children living through conflict around the world.
HELP(2) represents hope for children whose lives have been torn apart by war. It is a testament to the generosity of artists and the music industry for making a positive difference towards securing a safer, brighter future for those children. Because no child should be part of war. Ever.

A throbbing, louche and leisurely affair, groove is very much at the heart of this freestyle selection, a vibe which Bill de- scribes as “a basement, a red light and a sound system. Or, as the Beastie’s once rapped, slow and low, that is the tempo”. There’s Hawaiian drum machine bossa balearica from Islan...
