REM are to play a rare instore gig the Apple Store in London next week (March 26).

The gig will mark the third anniversary of the iTunes Live From London series, which in the past has featured the likes of Stereophonics, Supergrass and Keane.

REM will be playing exclusive tracks from their new album ‘Accelerate’, which is released the following Monday (March 31).

The show, at the Apple Store on Regent Street, will be performed, recorded and sold exclusively on all 22 iTunes stores worldwide.
