Biffy Clyro will play a special show at Shepherd’s Bush Empire on 20 February as part of Brit Awards week, in support of Warchild.
The Scottish rock act, who are nominated for best British band, are playing the headline gig in a series of Brit-themed shows around London. Earlier this year, the band were nominated in the same category at the NME Awards and celebrated in similar, albeit more low-key style with an acoustic set at London Omeara.
Last year’s series of concerts proved a success, raising more than £500,000 for War Child. This year, fans can enter a draw to win tickets my making a £5 donation to the charity here. Meanwhile the three-piece begin their tour, for which tickets are available from here, tonight at L’Olympia in Paris.
