Mark Ronson To Play BRIT Awards Aftershow Party For Warchild

February 7, 2011
Mark Ronson To Play BRIT Awards Aftershow Party For WarchildMark Ronson will host the aftershow party for the BRIT Awards in London next month.

The singer and producer will be joined by special guests at the Indigo2, which is located inside the O2 Arena.

The gig on February 15 is being held in association with Warchild, which helps children suffering the most brutal effects of war.

Ronson said: "Being asked to play the War Child post-Brits show is such a giant honour.

“And since I'm guilty of YouTubing the 2009 clip of Coldplay and Gary Barlow doing 'Back For Good' for War Child at least 180 times, I know we better pull off some magical moments".

For more information on War Child go to www.warchild.org.uk.

Tickets go on sale on Tuesday (February 8) at 9am.
