A TOP Welsh drum ’n’ bass act is hoping to raise funds for The Mullany Fund. DJ High Contrast is one of six local musicians who are performing for free at Cardiff’s Cool House night in Glo Bar this Saturday.

All proceeds generated from ticket sales will go towards the Mullany Fund, which gives financial help to UK medical and physiotherapy students. It was set up in memory of Ben and Catherine Mullany — a doctor and physiotherapist who were murdered on the last day of their honeymoon in Antigua earlier this year.

High Contrast, one of dance music’s biggest names, said he was more than happy to offer his services free of charge.

He said: “The needless deaths of Ben and Cath on their honeymoon shocked and saddened the entire country.

“When I was invited to play at a fund-raising event in their memory, I was more than happy to help out. I hope people will show their support for such a worthwhile cause.”

The Mullany Fund trustees said they were genuinely touched by the action. “We hope the Mullany Fund will inspire others to follow in their footsteps,” they added.

Tickets from £5. Doors 8pm.
