Longreef release new single/video for Battle Plan and help raise awareness of bullying

July 10, 2014

One of the hardest stories I had to write was back in October 2012 about a young teen, Amanda Todd who gave up her battle against bullying by committing suicide. It was devastating and quite an eye opener for myself and many others to hear how prevalent and widespread bullying is for today’s youth. I applaud all the organizations that worked to get the word out and raise awareness for the cause. Today I want to focus on how rockers Longreef are helping out with a great message of hope through their music. Longreef have recently released a new single along with a video for their song, Battle Plan. The new single “Battle Plan” is released in conjunction with the www.friendmovement.com to help raise awareness of the issue of bullying. First off, it is a great song in itself that is inspirational and uplifting and the vocals are truly captivating. Check out the video and also make sure to download the song here: Who is Longreef?
