After smashing her €10,000 goal to raise funds with her first single, it's time for local singer/songwriter Kelley McArdle to change gear with her follow-up track. Kelley has been busy writing new material during lockdown periods, when she would normally have been performing live gigs, something she really misses. Kelley picked the Rape Crisis Centre as the charity she wanted to raise funds for because, in her words they helped her out of the darkest time in her life. 'We actually raised €10,049.59, and I can't wait to hand over the cheque to the North East Rape Crisis Centre and Dublin Rape Crisis centre very soon.' Before then, Kelley will release her upbeat new song, which shows a very different side to her character.
