Music Venue Trust announce huge line-up for #FIGHTBACK

Everything Everything, Public Service Broadcasting, Ed Harcourt, The Carnabys and more have been confirmed to play the Music Venue Trust’s #FIGHTBACK show at The Roundhouse on 18 October to help raise awareness for the continuous threat of closure to the live music circuit.

Two weeks ago the Music Venue Trust announced a show at London’s Roundhouse to raise funds to help music venues under threat of closure. At the time of the announcement there were no bands, no sound, no lighting, no crew. Just shortly after offers from bands, sound engineers and more poured in and live music enthusiasts showed their support for the cause.
