Damien Dempsey has released his new Christmas song, Failte Abhaile, as a welcome home to Irish people living abroad.

The single was written by Damien, long term musical collaborator and producer John Reynolds and Gary Brown, with all profits from the track going to Focus Ireland.

Speaking about the song, co-writer Brown says, "The song is an expression of welcome to all Irish people, whether they be at home or abroad who, during these last few years of covid, may not have been able to get home for Christmas to see their loved ones,"

The artwork for the single has been donated by the artist, Maser.

Focus Ireland is a non-profit organisation based in Dublin that provides services for people who are homeless and people at risk of homelessness in Ireland.

It was founded by Sister Stanislaus Kennedy in 1985 and is one of the largest housing and homelessness organisations in Ireland.
