Dirty Pretty Things have announced they will play a one off charity show in London next month.
The gig hopes to raise awareness for the Make Roads Safe campaign, and comes around for the second time in two years. The band played a similar show in London last September, with special guest Paul Weller making an appearance on stage.
This time the concert will be at the Shepherd’s Bush Empire on April 22.
In a statement issued before the first gig, frontman Carl Barat said: “It is unbelievable that around the world a child is killed every 3 minutes on the road, yet almost nothing is being done to prevent this.”
