Musician James Wales (27) organised the event at The Met which took place on 3 May just two days before the anniversary of Evie's birth in 2004.

She was born 16 weeks prematurely and battled on for seven weeks, undergoing an operation on her bowel.

She came off a ventilator in intensive care which was helping her breathe and started breathing for herself.

But her condition deteriorated soon after and she later died.

James, who lives with his partner, Natalie Spreadbury (23) and their daughter Anya (2) in Bagdale, will split the money between three different places which helped with baby Evie's care.

They are the Neo Natal Unit at St James' Hospital in Leeds where Evie spent a week and Leeds General Infirmary where she spent six weeks.

James said the gig at the Met went brilliantly and he was grateful for all the help he received.

"I never imagined it would be such hard work to get on and I was really worried nobody would be there," he said.

"So when it was under way and there were about 180 people there I was very relieved and happy.

"It went brilliantly and I was really pleased as so many people helped, my mum Carol and my partner Natalie both did loads and Paul White did the sound for us for free which was a massive help."

The event was fronted by Chris the Poet and James with music from Most Wanted featuring James' brother Chris and Carl Trueman, and his other indie/rock band YabbaDabbaDoo, High Tide, Jon Horne, Alex Kirby, teenage band Wasting Charlie and The Merkins.

"I'm thinking about making the gig an annual event for a different charity each year," added James.

"I'm thankful this year we could raise the money for three good causes which are close to my heart."
