The full line-up for this year’s Teenage Cancer Trust shows, which take place at the Royal Albert Hall, has been announced – and tickets for all shows are available from www.aloud.com from Friday 22 February 10am.

The line-up is as follows:

Wednesday 9April
An evening of comedy hosted by Noel Fielding plus guests.

Thursday 10 April
A special acoustic performance by Paul Weller and Steve Cradock, with special guest Duffy.

Friday 11 April
The Fratellis plus guests

Saturday 12 April

Launched in 2000 by TCT Patron and The Who frontman Roger Daltrey CBE, the annual Teenage Cancer Trust shows have a reputation for attracting the biggest names in music: last year’s event saw performances from Paul Weller, Noel Gallagher and Kasabian, among others.

Announcing this year’s line-up, Daltrey said: “These shows, now in their eighth year, continue to help Teenage Cancer Trust raise essential funds to build specialist teenage cancer units within the NHS. In 2008, the charity will open five new units and will start building work on a further two. This means that many more teenagers with cancer will have access to one of our units and will get the support they need to fight this disease."

"Back in those days, bands put out an album a year, you toured with it for a year, then you went back in the studio and repeated the process. Looking back, I was glad I experienced that pressure. It helped me refine my craft and find myself as a writer. It kept me on my toes," says Weller, Gibson acoustic on knee. "It wasn't a treadmill, it was just what bands did back then.
