    Los Angeles, CA. 23 November 2015:​Each year in November, the Movember Foundation campaigns to raise money and awareness around men’s health issues. This year they have teamed up with Marshall Amps and music video app creator WholeWorldBand for an interactive version of ​David Bowie’s​1971 hit ​Changes.​Anyone in the world can join in on the session online, and one lucky participant will win a mega­limited edition custom Movember Marshall Amp. (Apparently they have made just two of them, so yeah, that’s what we call a limited edition.)

    The online video features a host of famous faces including ​Bob Forrest​(Bicycle Thief), Josh Klinghoffer​(Bicycle Thief, Red Hot Chili Peppers), S​tewart Copeland​(The Police), Hozier​, ​Phil Manzanera​(Roxy Music), ​Graham Gouldman​(10cc), ​Elliot Randall​(​Steely Dan), ​Fran Healy​(Travis), and R​ichard Barbieri​(Japan, Porcupine Tree) creating one of the world’s biggest supergroups.

    But that’s just the start ­ Movember are asking musicians everywhere to download the WholeWorldBand app and film themselves playing along with the Movember C​hanges​ video. To be entered into the draw, musicians must post a completed ​Changes​video to Facebook, Twitter, or YouTube via the WWB app. At the end of the campaign Movember will choose one musician at random to take home a Marshall amp in its uniquely styled Movember livery (see pic).

    The WholeWorldBand app can be downloaded free for Mac & Windows at www.wholeworldband.com ​or for iPhone & iPad from the Apple App Store. Just sign up and select the Movember Changes song to get playing!
