Papa Roach’s all-new “Scars (feat Chris Daughtry) (Live)” is the latest release from their EP Leave A Light (Talk Away The Dark), and was preceded by an emotional pledge given by frontman Jacoby Shaddix, who donated to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) on behalf of each attendee on the tour, totaling $155K.

"Joining voices with the legendary Chris Daughtry on ‘Scars’ was not only a surprise for fans at a sold out show, but the live recording was so great that we wanted to share it with the world," Shaddix says of the track. "Immediately, Chris was all-in on this track also benefitting the AFSP and their mission to save lives and bring hope to those affected by suicide - a cause that means so much to us both."

Chris Daughtry shares: "It was an honor to perform this classic which has been a personal favorite with my friend Jacoby and the boys when they came to Nashville. It’s an even greater honor that it is being used to do some good for an organization that is close to my heart."

Royalties for “Scars feat. Chris Daughtry (Live)” will be donated to the AFSP in support of their “Talk Away The Dark” campaign, while last year's single, “Leave A Light On (Talk Away The Dark),” will also see royalties donated directly to the AFSP to continue their mission to save lives and bring hope to those affected by suicide.

AFSP's Talk Away The Dark campaign encourages the people in our lives to open up about what they're thinking and bring the scariest emotions out of the shadows and into the light.
