''The Cake Sale'' is a 2006 charity album involving the collected works of a group of Irish and international musicians calling themselves The Cake Sale. The album features artists such as Snow Patrol's Gary Lightbody, Lisa Hannigan, Damien Rice, Josh Ritter, Glen Hansard, Neil Hannon, members of Bell X1 and Nina Persson of The Cardigans. These were brought together by Brian Crosby, a member of Bell X1 at the time. The album had sold 35,000 copies and raised over €250,000 in Ireland by November 2007. That month it was announced that the album would be released globally to increase donations. It peaked at #3 in the Irish Albums Chart, having spent eighteen weeks there. == Album information == The album was recorded by a group of Irish and international musicians to raise funds for the charity Oxfam Ireland's Make Trade Fair campaign.〔 Proceeds are added to the charity's “unrestricted fund” to support projects in ten African countries, countries such as Tanzania, Malawi, Uganda and Sudan.〔 Crosby said the album's success “completely exceeded expectations”, with the artists hoping it would go gold to cover their costs.〔 All the publishing royalties raised by the album benefit Oxfam as well, an unusual occurrence for a charity album.〔 Worldwide rights were negotiated and a label, Oxfam Publishing, was established to administer the royalties.〔 Oxfam Ireland had little experience in such dealings and left it to the musicians to negotiate the project.〔 Crosby says the album's success has raised the charity's profile and it was released digitally in the United Kingdom on 10 September in the United States on Yep Roc Records on 16 October 2007.〔
