Mount Pearl musician Alex Taylor hosted a benefit concert last month to raise money for people impacted by wildfires across the province. Joining Taylor were musicians Zander Wright, Jessie and Chris Connolly, Otto Pike, Paul Pearcey, George Power, Ed Breen, Daughters Of The Rock, and Brian, Kylynn, and Natalia Deboer. Taylor extended his thanks to the many volunteers who helped make the evening a success and those who donated, as well as the Parish of the Ascension for the use of the church for the evening. All told, some $2,400 was raised for the Red Cross.
