Ben Harper and Relentless7 will headline this year's Campus Consciousness Tour.

Created by non-profit group Reverb, Campus Consciousness Tour is half music, half environmental campaign aiming to inspire and activate students in a fun and exciting atmosphere while leaving a positive impact on each community and college that the tour reaches.

This video is a recap of the 2006 Campus Consciousness Tour. It features a fellow Lehigh University alum, Grady, who is now a grad student at Yale:)

Here's a video for the song "My Father's House". Buy the song now at iTunes and AmazonMP3 to benefit Artists for Peace and Justice Haiti Relief. This single is part of a split digital single released with Eddie Vedder's version of "My City of Ruins." The song, written by Bruce Springsteen, was performed live at the Kennedy Center Honors, Dec 6 2009. Ben Harper and Relentless7 will be opening for Pearl Jam in Europe this summer.

Ben also autographed a guitar along with Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt, Joan Baez and Ry Cooder, and donated some of his merch for a raffle, with proceeds going towards Haiti relief.

If you check out Ben's "activism" page on his website, the first nonprofit listed that he supports is the Surfrider Foundation. YEAH, Ben:)
