Canadian rock band The Trews, all safely self-isolating “during this strange and unusual time,” released an at-home music video a week ahead of the single, God Speed Rebel, which will be available today (April 10) with all revenue from streams and sales going to Unison Benevolent Fund, a registered charity that provides counselling and emergency relief services to the Canadian music community.
