Saint Alvia's New "Mother's Day" Single Aims to Raise $5,000 for Women's Cancer Charity

The Saint Alivia crew are good boys. Here's what they're doing:

After almost four years out of the spotlight (the) Saint Alvia (cartel) have returned with their first single "Mother's Day" from their new album "Static Psalms”. Teaming up with The Keep A Breast Foundation (www.keep-a-breast.org) to release "Mother's Day", proceeds of the song's digital download will help to raise money for cancer research and women's health. The goal has been set; Try to raise $5000. for Keep a Breast Canada (KABC) by Mother's Day 2012.

The lyrics of the song are a very personal message from the band, and Saint Alvia front man Ben Rispin had this to say: "A few years ago my Mom was diagnosed with Cancer. Having lost family to cancer in the past, I was feeling less than optimistic" adding, " These lyrics seemed to fall out of me like I was reading out of a card or channelling some sort long buried feeling of guilt."

Relieved he continues, "We received a call and found out that it was in fact a misdiagnosis. I realize that most cancer stories don't end like this although everyone prays they will - that's why we decided to donate proceeds of the song in hopes that other people will have the ending to their stories they deserve.
