Top Irish Acts To Rock Against Homelessness
HamsandwicH, Finbar Furey, Paul Brady, Delorentos, The Blizzards, Paul Cleary, Ivy Nations, and August Wells will perform at a charity fundraiser gig in Dublin on 7 April.
In response to the shameful, even shocking, homeless crisis in Ireland, some of the nation’s biggest acts have come to together for a major charity concert ‘Rock Against Homelessness’ taking place in the Olympia Theatre next month, on Friday 7 April.
The aforementioned acts, plus special guest hosts Al Porter and Katherine Lynch, will play an unique variety concert in aid of Focus Ireland to raise vital funds for Ireland’s most in need: the homeless.
Homeless musician Danny Bracken, accompanied by Paul Brady and Dave Fleming, will also perform on the night, along with a very special band, to be announced the week of the concert.
This year’s gig follows on from last year’s Rock Against Homelessness sold-out concert which featured Camille O’Sullivan, The Strypes, The Stunning, Something Happens, Mundy, Donal Lunny and many others. Funds raised from the gig last year allowed Focus Ireland support over 300 families to secure a home and leave homelessness last year.
Tickets cost €30 and are available from Ticketmaster agents nationwide and online. Phone & Internet Bookings are subject to 12.5% service charge per ticket, agents €2.15.
