Irish band fights homelessness with charity single

Dublin-based band Keywest, who are famed for drawing in crowds when busking on Grafton Street, have released a Christmas charity single to combat homelessness.

The band are embarking on 'A Hallelujah for the Homeless' with a cover the Leonard Cohen song Hallelujah.

Earlier in the week, Keywest were spotted performing with homeless rap artist Tommy KD in a song about Tommy's frustrations with homelessness in Irish society.

The single is available to download, with all proceeds going to Merchants Quay Ireland, who provide residential drug and alcohol treatment and reduce drug related harm, including homelessness.

The single can be purchased here.

Fair play, lads.
