For each of their last 4 releases, The Lunar Keys put their little money where their big mouths are - in support of good causes: ‘Silent Ricochet’ aided the arrival of 600 trees and counting (courtesy of Trees for the Future), whilst ‘Stop This’, ‘Oxygen Type’ and ‘Once’ raised money for the charities Nordoff Robbins, Oxygen and The Trussell Trust respectively. The release of Maniac will continue this Lunar tradition: The Steve, their guitarist, is just recovering from an all-important operation at The Royal Surrey County Hospital in Guildford, their hometown. In recognition of all their splendid support to The Steve and so many other patients, The Lunar Keys pledge to donate £1 for each of the first 250 reviews or airplays that Maniac receives to the nurses at The Royal Surrey. Hospital They Rock.
