Davey MacManus: fundraising show ahead of Africa nursing trip | Music News

 

Davey MacManus, singer in The Crimea, has announced a solo show at the Enterprise in Chalk Farm on 21st June. The gig is a fundraiser ahead of a 2 month trip to Soweto, to nurse at an HIV orphanage, and follows a similar trip to Kenya in 2011. Tickets for the show are available here. With the money raised Davey will buy harmonicas, guitars and other musical instruments. Here’s a video explaining:

 

 

Following the Kenya trip in 2011 MacManus wrote a short eBook, ‘Fear of Sky’, which gives a detailed and unique insight into his life as a volunteer nurse at Nyumbani orphanage and includes photos, poems and related short stories. You can get a copy, including a free song ‘Out of Africa’ from The Crimea’s Limited Pressing site.
