This morning, Milwaukee-based band Field Report released a brand new single called "Your Friend Tia."

It's a good tune – one for an even better cause. 

Field Report frontman Christopher Porterfield wrote the song for his 8-year-old neighbor Tia, who's currently in the midst of a brave battle with sickle cell anemia, and to raise awareness and support for others fighting the blood disease. 

"It dawned on me that we could at least help this amazing little girl feel special, and that we were weirdly positioned to be able to tell people who like our work about her story," Porterfield said in a press release. "So we did this song. Tia's whole family came to our show at the Pabst Theater in Milwaukee in October, and Tia and Mickey came on stage and the whole theater cheered for her. After that Daniel Holter offered to record us. And Justin Perkins offered to master the track. And Dwellephant offered to illustrate it. And now maybe more people will hear her story and be inclined to offer their love and support too."
