Henry McCullough Benefit Show comes to London
On March 17, now renamed "St. Henry's Day"!
If you happen to be in London this St. Patrick's Day, The Half Moon in Putney are putting on a fantastic night's entertainment to raise funds for a legendary guitarist.
An all-star line-up, including the likes of Suggs, Nick Lowe, Neil Innes and Graham Parker, will be present and correct to honour Henry McCullough, a tremendous six-stringer who has played with everyone from Joe Cocker to Paul McCartney.
Henry suffered a heart attack in November 2012 which left him for dead. Thankfully, paramedics miraculously revived him in the ambulance. But the experience has left him severely disabled, wheelchair-bound and sadly unable to walk, talk play again or do anything for himself. He and his carer wife Josie are living in a small rented cottage in Northern Ireland on a small state pension and need as much help as they can get so that Henry can get a little quality of life.
Tickets for the "Henry's Heroes" Benefit, taking place Tuesday March 17, are priced at £40 and all proceeds go to Henry and Josie.

Appearing at the benefit to help Henry are singers Paul Carrack, Nick Lowe, Andy Fairweather Lowe, Suggs McPherson, Graham Parker, Carol Grimes, Neil Innes & Tony O'Malley. The band "Henry's Heroes" are Tim Hinkley, Neil Hubbard, Jerome Rinson, Bobby Tench, Steve Simpson, Mel Collins, & John Halsey.
