Taylor Swift ‘Red’ comp for equal justice has Dan Campbell (TWY), more
Taylor Swift is celebrating a very special landmark today. The mega-crossover artist just turned 30. In celebration Something Merry gathered some very talented artists to cover Swift’s instant hit album Red. Dan Campbell of The Wonder Years has a particularly powerful rendition of “All Too Well”.
Other artists on the compilation include Future Teens, Adult Mom and Chris Farren (formerly Fake Problems).

The compilation by Something Merry is appropriately named ReRed. What’s better than listening to a bunch of your favorite artists cover Taylor Swift though? It’s that it benefits a good cause.
All of the proceeds to the comp go to Equal Justice Initiative. EJI is an organization that works to end mass incarceration, excessive punishment, and racial inequality.
ReRed features 19 different artists and bands. Artists began tweeting about their personal songs on the ReRed.

I covered the best Taylor Swift song, All Too Well, for this comp to help end mass incarceration.
A huge thank you to @futureteensusa for setting up the comp and also playing as my backing band for this and to @ace_enders for tracking my vocal and guitar last minute! ❤️❤️❤️ https://t.co/MTj6dDdZWI
