‘Together We Stand’ For Stuart Mangan
Munster rugby legends and musicians alike have rallied together to create a one-off CD, ‘Together We Stand’, to raise funds for Stuart Mangan Appeal. On sale from this Friday (April 3) at all music stores, Munster Rugby Stores and Centra and SuperValu shops.
On Saturday, April 5, 2008, Stuart Mangan, a young rugby player from Fermoy in County Cork, suffered a sudden but devastating spinal injury leaving him totally paralysed from the neck down.
Since then a campaign has been launched in order to raise much needed funds. The Stuart Mangan Appeal has received huge support from many organisations and individuals around the country.
Most recently, the support of Munster rugby legends and musicians alike have rallied together to create a one-off CD, ‘Together We Stand’, which is on sale this week.
The CD features past and present heroes of Munster rugby such as former Ireland internationals Peter Clohessy and Mick Galwey, who have teamed up with comedian Jon Kenny for a special recording of the Munster anthem, ‘Stand Up and Fight.’
Further tracks on the album include a medley of ‘The Fields of Athenry’, ‘Flower of Scotland’ and ‘Bread of Heaven’, sung by members of the current Munster squad.
A host of national talent features on the CD – Cork singer/songwriter John Spillane, multi-award winning soprano Cara O’Sullivan and the award-winning Gemma Hayes.
