Rock Against Trafficking (RAT) was founded by Gary Miller, Peter White, and Miller’s music partner, Rimma Drosdov. The RAT team is currently producing the project, "Set Them Free," with legendary artists performing covers of the music of Sting and the Police. The first artists/bands to record songs for the album are all Grammy Award or Rock-n-Roll Hall of Famers winners or nominees, including: Fergie (Black Eyed Peas), Steven Tyler (Aerosmith), Slash (Guns & Roses), Julian Lennon, Journey, and Glenn Hughes (Deep Purple). Others who have committed to the project include, Heart, En Vogue, and Joss Stone, with numerous other artists or their reps expressing interest, such as, Bruce Springsteen, Stevie Wonder, Bruno Mars and the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
