Frank Carter and the Sex Pistols are to combine for two special benefit concerts in London this summer.
Sex Pistols' Paul Cook, Glen Matlock and Steve Jones will be joined by vocalist Carter to perform the Sex Pistols' iconic 1977 album 'Never Mind The Bollocks' in full at Bush Hall on August 13 and 14.
The shows have been set up to raise funds to preserve the historic, independent music venue. Frank Carter said: "This has been a joy from start to finish. When the Sex Pistols call, you answer. I'm very excited to be a part of it."
Cook added: "We’re doing a benefit for Bush Hall with the famous Frank Carter. We’re going to be playing Pistols numbers cause they need support and they need the money. We thought it would be a great way to stop it going under. This is my local venue. I grew up in Shepherd’s Bush and I still live round here. It would be a real shame to see it disappear and we want to keep it going. So everyone get down to the gig!"
Matlock continued: "Smaller music venues are the lifeblood of new music. It's in these intimate spaces that raw talent gets a chance to shine, where bands can really connect with their audiences, and where the spirit of live music truly comes alive so we need to keep them going."
Bush Hall owner, Charlie Raworth also commented:
"We love putting on the music and giving musicians a platform to perform on our stage, in an intimate space, that is up close and personal with the audience. We want and need to keep this going. So, a massive thanks from all at Bush Hall to the legends that are the Sex Pistols and Frank Carter."
Funds raised from the show will go directly towards saving the West London grassroots venue. Tickets go on general sale at 9am on Wednesday (June 5).
