Proving themselves to be much more than just pop rock wizards, the New Pornographers have once again stepped up to support a cause.

The same trio of musicians, as well as a cello player, performed a stripped-down version of "Adventures in Solitude," from 2007's Challengers, for The New Gay to speak out against LGBT bullying.
