"This Friday from 6pm I will be playing a very special live stream for the good people of Hope For Laois Covid 19 Support Group from my home studio," Joe S says.

"They are a voluntary group set up by locals from the communities of Laois to help the most vulnerable, elderly and individuals in need stay safe during the Covid-19 crisis.
