+ CHARITY SHOW IN AID OF ‘CRISIS’, EUROPEAN TOUR WITH SKID ROW AND STONEFREE FESTIVAL.
Blues-rock quartet Dirty Thrills will release a new single entitled ’The Brave’ on 20th February and are playing a free acoustic charity show in North London on 16th to promote it. The band state that :“In the sprit of the song, it’s meaning and lyrical message, we will be raising money for the homeless charity Crisis at a free stripped back gig on 16th February at the World’s End pub in Camden. We hope to see you all there to raise awareness and funds for a cause close to our hearts.”
