A Brit Award-nominated band is set to play at a live event at Epsom Racecourse and help raise funds for victims of the earthquake in Haiti.
The Feeling are the penultimate act to be announced for the Epsom Live! festival, a series of five Thursday evening gigs, and will be playing after racing on July 15.
Epsom Downs Racecourse will donate £1 of every ticket sold in February for The Feeling concert to a charity helping the aid effort in Haiti.
The band have enjoyed hit singles since 2006 including I Thought It Was Over, Fill My Little World, Sewn and Never Be Lonely.
Their debut album Twelve Stops and Home reached number two in the charts with their last album Join With Us making it to number one. Their third album is set to be released in the autumn.
Rupert Trevelyan, managing director of Epsom Downs Racecourse said: “We are very pleased with the variation of the bands we have confirmed for Epsom Live!, as we are confident that each act will appeal to a range of music and racing fans alike. The Haiti disaster has shocked the world and we are pleased we can offer our financial support towards this grief stricken country.”
The Feeling will join Simply Red, James Morrison, JLS and a final act still to be announced in the summer gigs.
The Queen’s Stand and Duchess’s Stand will be open as one enclosure for Epsom Live with tickets costing £33 which includes the racing and concert.
