The Kaiser Chiefs, Franz Ferdinand and Goldfrapp are lending their support to Oxjam- described by the organisers as "the UK’s biggest ever music festival" - in aid of charity Oxfam.
The event will aim to stage 2,500 music events in the month of October to raise money for the charity.
Kaiser Chiefs’ Ricky Wilson said in a statement: “Oxjam is a new festival that will keep up the momentum of Live8. Whether it’s shaking a tambourine for hours, dancing till the break of dawn or forming a band on the spot. Big or small, it doesn’t matter. Please sign up and make a noise.”
Goldfrapp’s Alison Goldfrapp added: “We are playing lots of big festivals across Europe this summer but Oxjam is different, it’s a month long music festival where anyone can join in. Anyone can be part and help make poverty history through making some good noise.”
