Dublin People 21 Apr 2012
FOLLOWING the successful release of a song for the European Championships, a north county Dublin singer-songwriter has announced that proceeds from all online sales of the single will be donated to Temple Street Children’s University Hospital.

‘Ireland All The Way’, which was written for the European Championships in Poland and the Ukraine this summer, is now available to buy online on Apple iTunes for 99c. Kevin Myers, from Portmarnock, wrote the song.
Susan Bradley, from the Fundraising Office in Temple Street Children’s University Hospital, said they were delighted that the hospital will benefit from this fundraiser.
“All funds raised will assist us in the purchase of vital equipment at our hospital,
? stated Ms Bradley.
Mr Myers said he was thrilled to be able to support Temple Street.
“My wife Oonagh and I have been attending Temple Street for the last year with our daughter Faye, so we are delighted to help in any way we can,
? he stated.
“We hope to share success in equal measure both on and off the pitch this summer.

The anthem
‘Ireland all the Way’ is for the fans with a blend of Irish traditional music and Celtic rock to stir the soul of Irish music and football fans alike.
Andy Bennett, a past contestant of RTÃ?’s
‘You’re a Star’ lends his unmistakable vocal talent to the song.
Members of the
‘Poznan Posse’, some of whom are travelling to Poland to support the team, add their backing vocals to the song.
Keith said the song delivers a tongue-in-cheek commentary on the build up to the championships.
“It has a light-hearted poke at the current challenges facing supporters who are doing whatever it takes to follow the boys in green,
? he added.
“The track crescendos to a rousing finish that’s sure to instil a drive and passion in us all as we prepare for the upcoming tournament.
