The British stars have all recorded popular cover versions that will feature on a record to raise money for children living with the effects of war.
Legendary musicians have given their consent for current acts to rework their songs for the charitable cause.
"War Child does exactly what it says on the tin. These kids shouldn't be in such circumstances in the first place, but they are, so thank god someone's doing something about it," Elbow's Guy Garvey said.
War Child was founded in 1993 and works in war zones including Iraq, Afghanistan, Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The album will be released on February 16.
