The Haiti Earthquake Fundraiser
25 FEBRUARY 2010
KT Tunstall and Paul Weller are the latest acts to be added to Haiti Earthquake Fundraiser’s star-studded line up. The event is set to fill the Roundhouse with a night of music and comedy to raise thousands for the aid work in Haiti.
The full line-up for this month’s Haiti Earthquake Fundraiser gala has now been announced with KT Tunstall and Paul Weller joining Bombay Bicycle Club, Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly, Magic Numbers, Mr Hudson, Othello Woolf, Seasick Steve and The Futureheads on the bill to support of the humanitarian aid efforts of both ActionAid and Médecins Sans Frontières.
100% of money raised through the Fundraiser will be donated directly to ActionAid and Médecins
Sans Frontières to support their work saving and re-building the lives of those affected by the Haiti earthquake. The
initial line-up, brought together in only four days by music industry insiders - with support from industry bodies such as
the Brit Awards - features a diverse range of music, comedy and television stars, programmed to create a spectacular evening
of entertainment at Camden’s Roundhouse and, later, at the Proud Galleries.
With a further 250 pledges of
support from performers, agents, promoters and venue owners, the organisers are promising several announcements of further
headline acts in the next 10 days.
100% of money raised through the Fundraiser will be donated directly to ActionAid
and Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) to support their work saving and re-building the lives of those affected by the
Haiti earthquake.
“We’re appealing to all music fans to get involved”, comments organiser Katrina
Larkin. “Sign Up, Join In and
Give as much as you can. Absolutely every little penny helps.”
“This is the best ticket you’ll buy all year” Chris Martin, Coldplay
"The BRIT Awards 2010 wholeheartedly
supports the Haiti Earthquake Fundraiser and will work with the organisers to help in every way it possibly can."
