Hole and Babyshambles have both been added to the NME Awards shows in London next month.

Courtney Love's band, who release their first album in 12 years - 'Nobody's Daughter' - early in 2010, play the Shepherds Bush Empire on February 17.

Meanwhile, Babyshambles will play Camden Town's KOKO on the very same night.

Hole's gig will mark the first time UK fans have seen the new incarnation of the band, featuring Love, Micko Larkin on guitar, Shawn Dailey on bass and Stu Fischer on drums.

Other acts playing NME Awards shows throughout February include Hadouken!, Delphic, Yeasayer, British Sea Power, New Young Pony Club and Simian Mobile Disco.
