On Sunday, September 14th, friends of Slag Mag and allies in the Birmingham music scene are hosting a charity fundraiser in tribute to a beloved friend of Birmingham.

On Tuesday, September 3rd, Holly Plant lost her battle with cancer. She is survived by husband Will and their three year old son Arden. Her cancer was a rare form, and after a series of unsuccessful treatments over 18 months she decided to end her treatment to be with her family.

Birmingham and Midlands bands Sunshine Frisbee Laserbeam, Hoopla Blue, Mayors of Toronto, Modern Literature, Richard Burke and A BULL will all perform at the Hare and Hounds, Kings Heath, with all proceeds from tickets going to help Will and toddler Arden cope financially.

The charity gig starts at 2pm and is free entry, but a donation of £5 is suggested to go towards a goal of £10,000. Donations can be made on the day or online via JustGiving.com
