Manic Street Preachers are set to release the official single for Wales' EURO 2016 campaign.

It's called "Together Stronger (C’mon Wales)", and a press release says that the song "celebrates past and present members of the squad and their appearance in a major football tournament for the first time in over half a century."

All the profits from sales of the single will be donated to the Princes Gate Trust and Tenovus Cancer Care.

A music video for the song will feature members of the Wales squad, plus manager Chris Coleman.

Coleman says of the single: “It was fantastic to be involved with such an iconic Welsh band. Manic Street Preachers have been passionate Welsh football supporters and all the lads enjoyed the experience and joined in. It is also great to be supporting such worthwhile causes in the Princes Gate Trust and Tenovus Cancer Care.”

On 20 May, Manic Street Preachers will also release a special 20th anniversary boxset edition of seminal LP Everything Must Go.
