Dave gilmour"The global financial crisis has led to a human crisis in the UK. Thousands of people are losing their jobs and many will see their homes repossessed. As a long-term supporter of Crisis, I have seen how its life-changing services help to transform homeless people’s lives. I am performing with Amadou and Mariam to help raise vital funds at a time when Crisis' services are needed more than ever."

This unique performance will take place in a converted church in central London but the venue for the show will be kept secret until the day before, ticket holders will be emailed or texted the secret location 24 hours before the gig.
Homeless Charity Crisis wants to put a spotlight on the growing issue of ‘hidden homelessness’ in the UK. By withholding details of the venues until the day before, Crisis wants people to understand the precarious nature of hidden homelessness – often moving from place to place, and often not knowing where you may end up each night.
