Mencap’s Little Noise Sessions curated by Mencap ambassador Jo Whiley, are back! Returning for the sixth year running, the line-up has been revealed for the 6 nights of simply stunning, acoustic gigs in aid of learning disability charity Mencap.
Kicking-off the opening session on Tuesday 22nd November, Guy Garvey's Elbow take to the stage supported by rising star Maverick Sabre. Elbow front-man Guy Garvey said; ”We are dead proud to be added to the list of amazing bands that have done the Little Noise Sessions for Jo Whiley and Mencap. In fact we have organised a warm up tour of Europe before the show to make sure we are in tip top condition when we play!”
Headlining Wednesday 23rd November will be Marina & The Diamonds. Having been away to work on her eagerly-awaited follow up to her debut album, 'The Family Jewels', Marina is now set to give a stunning performance at the the Little Noise Sessions. Marina & The Diamonds are supported by Swedish duo Icona Pop and innovative East London girl Spark.
With Thursday's bill still to be confirmed, Friday sees Goldfrapp take their unique sound to the stage before a jam-packed Saturday line-up consisting of Example, Ed Sheeran, Birdy and Fenech Soler entertain.
The closing night of the Little Noise Sessions, Sunday 22nd November, will see Sinead O'Connor, King Creosote and more bring the curtain down on 2011's run of live shows.
