Royal Blood, The Vaccines and Run The Jewels will all be at the 2015 NME Awards for live performances next month.

The ceremony takes place on February 18th at the Brixton Academy, and will have Royal Blood on the stage after the duo were nominated in no less than seven categories. It’s a sign of the widespread appeal of Ben Thatcher and Mike Kerr given that they have already been revealed as one of the live guests at this year’s Brit Awards.

Meanwhile, El-P of their fellow NME performers Run The Jewels has said: “We don’t know that much about it, but NME has given us amazing love, so when we heard about it, we just said ‘of course, we’d love to.”

Along with Kasabian, Royal Blood are up for the four main NME Awards – Best British Band, Best Album, Best Live Band and Best Track – and will also compete for the Best New Band and Best Video gongs.
