The Civil Wars and T Bone Burnett have collaborated on a new film, following their Grammy-winning “Hunger Games” collaboration, “Safe & Sound” (with Taylor Swift), which snagged the award for best song written for visual media at Sunday night”s awards.

They have contributed 14 songs to the soundtrack for “A Place At The Table,” a documentary that addresses the hunger crisis in America. The film opens March 1, while the soundtrack comes out Feb. 26 on Sensibility Media.
They are donating all producer/artist royalties to The Participant Foundation.
The soundtrack includes the single, “Long Time Gone,” which the Civil Wars had been performing live as early as late 2011, but has been completely revamped into a military-type stomp.
