Star-studded gig in The Spout in Kilcullen tonight in aid of cancer research

Music fans are in for a real treat in The Spout bar in Kilcullen tonight.

Jimmy Aspell started this gig eight years ago in aid of cancer research after he was diagnosed with incurable cancer.

He fought the disease very courageously but sadly lost his battle on 14th of January this year.

Liam Kett, Brush Shields, Tony Kirwan, Barley & The Grapes, The Misfits, Roisin McAlinden and Jimmy's 15 year old daughter Leah are all performing toight in the Spout, Kilcullen from 8pm.

The CDs have a song recorded by Jimmy and Tony Kirwan  - 'When it snows in New Orleans'.

The second song is one Tony wrote after he came to say his goodbyes to Jimmy - 'Glad I Got To See You One Last Time'.

Organisers are also making a donation from the night to Michael Mullen fund to go towards him travelling to the US for treatment for cancer.
