7 TRACKS
700 UNIQUE RECORDS
Countless lives changed

War Child presents Secret 7” brings together 7 iconic tracks from 7 of the world’s top musicians, each pressed just 100 times onto a 7” vinyl.

Creative minds from across the globe are invited to reinterpret these tracks, producing 700 one-of-a-kind sleeve designs.

All 700 sleeves are showcased at a free exhibition before being auctioned off in support of War Child. The twist? Both artists and musicians remain anonymous until buyers have parted with their cash.

Bringing Together Music and Art for A Good Cause

Over nine editions Secret 7” has produced and sold 6,300 one-of-a-kind records - raising over £930,000 for charity.

 Secret 7” first raised funds for War Child in 2014, and as of 2024, War Child has taken the creative reins since – fundraising solely to support our work providing essential aid, education and support to children and families impacted by conflict globally.
