Kasabian play special performance for War Child supported by Stockport indie rockers Blossoms
26 February 2025
BRITs Week 25, delivered by DHL for War Child continued last night with a truly unforgettable evening. Legendary English rock band Kasabian performed a set packed full of hits, such as ‘Club Foot’, ‘You’re In Love With A Psycho’, ‘Fire’ and more at the iconic O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire.
The set was alight with energy, featuring heavy crowd interaction from frontman Sergio Pizzorno which saw him both in the stalls and on the balcony throughout the set. There was also a special guest appearance from Comedian and Bake Off co-host Noel Fielding, which added comedic energy to the set.
To make things even more special, support on the night came from English quintet indie rock band, Blossoms, who opened the show in style with guitar-driven melodic hits, including; ‘Charlemagne’, ‘Your Girlfriend’, and recent fan favourite ‘Gary’.
BRITs Week 25, delivered by DHL for War Child gives fans the unforgettable opportunity to see intimate, one-off performances from some of the biggest and most exciting names in music at some of the UK’s best venues.
All proceeds from the shows go towards War Child’s phenomenal work to help provide protection, education, mental health support, and more while standing up for the rights of children whose lives have been devastatingly affected by war.
