Foals have joined the BRITs Week series of gigs which are supporting the War Child charity for a sixth year between February 8th-22nd.
“It’s an honour to be playing a show in support of War Child and their vital work with children affected by war,” Yannis Philippakis says. “One in six children around the world live in a conflict zone and we’re proud to be able to use our platform to bring attention to this cause. It’s going to be a special night.”
Foals add to a line-up which also includes Bastille, Catfish And The Bottlemen and Bombay Bicycle Club among others. “We’re over the moon to announce BRITs Week together with O2 for 2020, it’s an amazing series with the strongest line up yet,” Rich Clarke, Head Of Music at War Child has previously said.
“We’re so grateful for the support from the music industry – artists, managers, agents, labels as well as our incredible partners O2, the BPI and AEG to deliver these unique shows and create moments that will stay with the fans forever. This is our flagship fundraising series of live shows and the funds raised will change the lives of hundreds of thousands of the world’s most vulnerable children.”
