Arctic Monkeys annoncerer livealbum – ude d. 4/12-2020
Arctic Monkeys og War Child UK er stolte af, at kunne annoncere udgivelsen af Arctic Monkeys - Live At The Royal Albert Hall, der vil være ude d. 4. december 2020 på Domino Recordings / Playground Music. Alle indtægter fra albummet vil gå til War Child UK for at hjælpe med til, at dække et truende underskud på 2 millioner pund. Et underskud, der er blevet til virkelighed pga. den indflydelse Covid-19 har haft på War Child UKs fundraising.
Arctic Monkeys udtaler:
“On June 7, 2018 we played a very special show at London’s Royal Albert Hall. All the proceeds from that memorable night were donated to War Child UK in support of the vital work they do protecting, educating and rehabilitating children who have experienced the trauma of conflict and the horror of war. The situation that was bad in 2018 is now desperate and those children and their families need our help more than ever. To enable War Child UK to reduce their funding deficit and continue their valuable work, we are happy to be able to release a live album, recorded that evening at The Royal Albert Hall. All proceeds will go direct to the charity. We thank all our fans in advance for their support of this release and in turn for their support of War Child UK” - Arctic Monkeys.
Albummet er indspillet i starten af bandets Tranquility Base Hotel + Casino-turné, og Arctic Monkeys - Live At The Royal Albert Hall indeholder 20 af bandets fineste sange og momenter til dato. Se trailer fra koncerten HER.
Arctic Monkeys - Live At The Royal Albert Hall udgives som limiteret clear double vinyl, standard black double vinyl, double CD og på digitale formater.
Om War Child UK:
War Child UK is a specialist charity for children affected by conflict. They aim to reach children as early as possible when conflict breaks out and stay to support them through their recovery – keeping them safe, helping them learn and cope with their experiences, and equipping them with skills for the future. They also offer counselling and psycho-social support to these vulnerable children via specialist helplines, and campaign for changes to policies and practices to support children in conflict, working with children and young people themselves to demand their rights.
Right now, the basic rights of children in war zones are hitting an all-time low – they need help now more than ever. Cramped conditions in refugee camps and displaced communities facilitate the spread of Covid-19, and the financial impacts on families with no safety net will mean millions could starve to death as the virus limits access to vital resources.
War Child UK are responding to the crisis by distributing hygiene kits, PPE and sanitation guidance to limit the spread of infection. They are also providing essential food packages to the hardest hit families, home education packs, lessons via WhatsApp and email as well as toys and books to children stuck in camps during lockdown so they can continue to learn and play.
