Staying home because of the COVID-19 outbreak, but still looking for a little St. Partick's Day fun. 

Newfoundland band Shanneyganock decided to do something about that.

Band members Chris Andrews and Mark Hiscock posted plans for an online concert and fundraiser on their Facebook page on Monday.

"It’s a really good time to celebrate and cherish the songs and stories of our culture and for us to band together, even if it is online." 

Money raised by the online concert will go to the Newfoundland and Labrador Community Food Sharing Association.
