Biffy Clyro have announced a last-minute gig at London's Tate Modern tonight (Wednesday 12 June).

The Scottish, usually shirtless, three-piece took to Twitter this afternoon to tell their fans in the capital to await a big annoucement. 

They tweeted: "Biffy fans in London... Stand by for something a bit secret, a little special, and very last minute...!"

They then added: "Tonight. 8pm. London. Southbank. Tate Modern. #agit8 #protestsongs"

The show at the Tate will be part of ONE's campaign agit8. Founded by U2 frontman Bono, the charity campaigns to fight extreme poverty and preventable disease, particularly in Africa, by raising public awareness and pressuring political leaders to support effective policies and programmes. They're releasing an album with collection of protest songs and covers from the likes of Bruce Springsteen, The Specials, Elvis Costello, Manic Street Preachers and many more.

 Watch the video for 'Black Chandelier' by Biffy Clyro below:

The gig would be the 'Many of Horror' rockers only remaining UK gigs of 2013 other than their hotly-anticipated headline slot at Reading and Leeds festivals in August.

The gig tonight is free.
