NEW YORK - Singer Sheryl Crow helped found Rock the Vote 18 years ago, and she is still encouraging young people to participate in voting for the upcoming presidential campaign.
The Grammy Award winning singer is offering a free digital download of her album Detours to the first 50,000 people who register three friends to vote.
The singer is offering a free digital copy of her album to anyone who can register three of their friends to vote.
"I hope people wake up and emotionally engage in issues," Crow said of her campaign that kicks off the "Rock The Vote" voter registration drive, according to Associated Press.
Crow, a cancer survivor, said that "Detours" is the perfect reflection of what's going around the world that may contribute to the vote.
"It's about the issues that everyone's talking about, but there's a lot of hope. At this moment in my life, writing about anything else would be uninteresting and impossible because I feel such urgency," she added.
In addition to the digital copy, she will also give free download for "Gasoline", a track included in "Detours", for anyone who logs on to Rock the Vote official site or for those who join the mailing list.
"I am so thrilled to be working with Rock the Vote at this very crucial time in our country's history. This is our moment to wake up and seize our power regarding the future of this nation and what it stands for," Crow said, on the Rock the Vote website.
