1989’s Rock Aid Armenia project participants continue with their support to Armenia.

One of Asia band founders, Geoff Downes (keyboards), performed at Raglan Music Festival featuring Geoff Downes and Friends – Rock Aid Armenia special project.

With all tickets sold out, the performance was a success, being named the best in 6 years.

Geoff Downes visited Armenia in 2009 within the framework of Armenia Grateful 2 Rock project. The artist was awarded with RA President’s Medal of Honour for contribution to Rock Aid Armenia project.

Proceeds from Geoff Downes’ concert in Raglan (USD 3 thousand) will be allocated to Gyumri music school reconstruction fund.

Proceeds from Ian Gillan’s charity concerts with RA Philharmonic Orchestra (USD 45 thousand) will be allocated to the same fund.
