‘THIS CHRISTMAS’

We are delighted to be apart of a very special campaign celebrating a new Single performed and written by ‘FUNZO’ IN AID OF BARNARDOScharity. GoodSeedPR have offered our time for free on this particular campaign because we feel that every now and then we all must take a step back and think about how lucky and fortunate we all are. In a world where bad news and word of disaster travels fast, it is easy to become numb to it all, and not take a moment to think about the lives of others. Today we kindly ask you, not even now, but maybe a little later on, to pause for a moment and think about this wonderful charity that works to improve the lives of Children at risk.

And for your time and goodwill we would like to extend our many thanks.

‘THIS CHRISTMAS’ has a Rel date of Dec 10th and will be Available on iTunes and in all stores nationwide from Dec onwards. if you click on the image below it will bring you to a place where you can listen to the song. If you like us, like what you hear, please support and purchase it from Dec onwards by walking into any HMV store and buying it.

PLEASE PASS ONTO ALL YOUR FRIENDS AND SHOW YOUR SUPPORT.

PRESS RELEASE:

Barnardos’ work is about helping children make the most of their lives, regardless of what they’re up against.  Operating in over 40 Barnardos Centre’s in communities across Ireland, each and every day they encounter children living brutalized lives. They work with families to improve parenting skills and tackle issues of poverty, domestic abuse, addiction and the impact these problems have on children. Their work would not be possible without the help of generous people like you. It is our belief that through all of us working together we can truly make a difference to children’s lives now and in the future.

Irish band ‘Funzo’ have decided to dedicate all proceeds of their song ‘This Christmas’, (written by Liam McDermott) towards the said charity: Barnardos. The single will be released on December 10th. Lead vocalist from the band Funzo (Liam) witnessed the great work of Barnardos first-hand through his mother, Dolores McDermott, who has worked for Barnardos since 1993. Funzo are a six-piece outfit that has a steadily growing fanbase.  They have played over 160 gigs the past year including: Oxegen (2010),Electric Picnic (2010, 2009), Hard Working Class Heroes (2010) and Castle Palooza (2010). They have received airplay on national radio stations and performed their award-winning Christmas song on TV3 (December 2009). This year they have decided to release the winning song as an official charity single and donate all proceeds to Barnardos.

*It is Funzo’s belief that during the season of goodwill, people will be keen to support the single release and help raise significant funds for Barnardos. For more info on the band please go to: http://www.myspace.com/listentofunzo
