Kasabian and La Roux To Play Post-Brit Awards War Child Gig

Kasabian and La Roux are to perform at London's Shepherds Bush Empire for charity War Child next month.

Held after The Brit Awards on February 16th, as well as the two live acts Calvin Harris will be performing a DJ set plus there's 'very special guests' to be announced.

Kasabian said of the show: “War Child’s work is absolutely vital. Simple! They have done so many beautiful things and to help raise money for them to extend the reach of their amazing work is a huge honour. It will be an inspirational night all round!”

Tickets for the show cost £50 and will be on sale to O2 customers from 9am this Monday (February 1) and on general sale two days later.

War Child's annual post-Brits event follows in the footsteps of last year's concert at the Shepherds Bush Empire, which featured performances from The Killers, Coldplay, U2's Bono and Gary Barlow from Take That.
