Stellar Road Contributes to Compilation Album
Stellar Road recently recorded an updated version of the Civil War era classic, “When Johnny Comes Marching Home” for a compilation album entitled Have You Seen My Hero. 100% of the proceeds from the album go to benefit the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund, an organization that helps the families of military personnel who were killed or seriously injured while serving their country.
Music producer and musician, Scott Anderson, contacted the band from New York hoping they would agree to become a part of the project. The members of Stellar Road were more than happy to contribute. Stellar Road took a short break from recording the band’s soon to be released second album to record “Johnny.” In one day, with no rehearsal, they were able to complete an impressive recording. The members of the band wanted to breathe new life into the song while preserving the original spirit of the American classic. The release date for this compilation is set for late September.
