Hope Is Noise to donate album proceeds to charity

Proceeds from the first 200 copies of Applaud Friends... The Comedy Is Over will be given to Love's Bridge, an organisation working with street children in the central Russian city of Perm.

Hope Is Noise are currently touring on the west coast of America, but the boys will be returning to Ireland in September to play benefit gigs in Cork and Limerick, details of which will be announced shortly.
