Babyshambles bassist, Drew McConnell, recently performed on the 'Consequences' track for the homeless charity Crisis, and the single is out now as a CD, limited edition 7" picture disc & download. The track features all sorts of people, including Paul Weller, Beth Ditto, Supergrass, The Enemy, Graham Coxon, Ed Harcourt and New Young Pony Club, and is built around the parlour game ‘consequences’, in which participants write a story or draw a figure without seeing each other’s input, so each part of the song – drums, bass, guitar, vocals, etc. – was recorded by artists unaware of what had been laid down before (however it seems very unlikely that all of these parts weren't made to fit together afterwards). The song itself isn't all that great, but all proceeds from the record go to Crisis – (Crisisconsequences.com).
Here's a very "Hello, my name is...", Live Aid-style video:
