Fundraiser for Bestival crash victims

The Cuban Brothers will be at a fundraiser at Nation in Liverpool in aid of Bestival-goes killed on their way home from the Isle of Wight.

THE line-up for a Bestival fundraiser in aid of those affected by a crash that killed revellers on their way home from the Isle of Wight last year, has been announced.

Bestival bosses organised the fundraiser at Liverpool's Nation club in memory of those who died in the crash as they travelled back to Merseyside on the A3.

The event will take place on March 30 and will feature Liverpool legends Ian McCulloch, of Echo and the Bunnymen and Ian Broudie, of the Lightning Seeds.

They will be joined by V-Dub Island headliners and Bestival-favourites The Cuban Brothers, as well as The Tea street Band and Hoodie Ledbetter.

Money raised from the night will go to the immediate parents or guardians of Bestival-goers Michael Molloy and Kerry Ogden who lost their lives in the accident and Zach Washington-Young who suffered life changing injuries.
