"The Nature Conservancy has teamed up with several bands and artists for an ongoing YouTube campaign called \"All Hands Music.\" \nOn Thursday, Mashable is bringing you the series' latest video, which features the band Blind Pilot performing an acoustic version of their song, \"Just One,\" and discussing their relationship with nature. \n\"All Hands Music\" is part of a larger campaign called \"All Hands on Earth,\" which aims to raise awareness through music by employing artists as advocates.\n\"The larger initiative is an opportunity to activate a younger and more diverse audience,\" said Chris Broda-Bahm, director of signature programs for the Nature Conservancy. \"When we were selecting our artists, we were really hoping they would help us by leveraging their fan bases.\" \nIn addition to looking for a diverse, international group of artists, the conservancy looked for articulate people with stories to tell and a proven history of environmental advocacy.\nBlind Pilot is one such band. The group famously toured by bike in its early days, and unlike some bands who may forgo the great outdoors while touring, Blind Pilot makes it a priority to enjoy nature while away from home. \nWhen drummer Ryan Dobrowski spoke with Mashable via phone from France, where the band was preparing to play a show, he said they had found time to go for a hike earlier that day. \"It recharges us and gives us energy. Otherwise, it can be a lot of driving and going straight to the venue.\"\nCheck out our exclusive video, above, featuring Blind Pilot."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
