Last Saturday's Dundalk for Palestine gig has raised over €4,000 in support of Medical Aid For Palestine.

The show included performances from singer-songwriter David Keenan, R&B duo Negro Impacto, Elephant, Jinx Lennon, Geansaí, imBau and Sophie Coyle, as well as T J Murphy, Rowan, KOI and Roisin Ward Morrow.

It took place in Spirit Store, the winner of the Best Live Music Venue award in Leinster at the IMRO Ireland Venue of the Year Awards.

At the time, the organisers said that they are aiming to “raise much needed funds for Medical Aid Palestine in light of the ongoing horrors of war and genocide being inflicted on civilians in the region.”

Earlier today, Keenan took to his Instagram story to announce: “Almost €4000 raised from this gig was donated to Medical Aid For Palestine thanks to all who showed their support.”

He went on to thank the venue, saying: “Special thanks to Spirit Store for helping to facilitate an inspired gig, a real community event. Proud of everybody involved.”
