Strokes and Britney help hurricane victims

Over 100 artists, including The Strokes and Britney Spears, have signed guitars for an online auction by Storm Aid, with proceeds going to the Red Cross and Hurricane Charley victims.

The Strokes and Britney Spears are among 100 artists who have agreed to autograph guitars for an online auction to raise money for the victims of Hurricane Charley which hit Florida earlier this month. Other musicians helping the charity - Storm Aid - include Linkin Park, Shakira, Incubus, Dashboard Confessional, Korn, LL Cool J and the X-ecutioners.

On his band's involvement in the project, Incubus guitarist Mike Einzinger said: "It's devastating to us to see people lose their homes. And hopefully our contribution will help ease the burden for some of the victims affected by the storm. We're honoured to do our part."

All profits from the auctions will go directly to the Red Cross and displaced victims of the storm.
