The band will be supported by Trophy Wife and Dan Croll to show their support for human rights and Freedom from Torture’s work in caring for survivors of torture and organised violence who have sought refuge in the UK.

Their headline performance is the climax of a series of concerts the charity is organising in London and Manchester around International Human Rights Day on December 10th.

Jack Steadman, Bombay Bicycle Club lead singer said: “We are really pleased to be part of this festival to support victims of torture and raise awareness of Freedom from Torture’s incredible work.” 

Kit Monteith from Trophy Wife said: “We’re looking forward to playing this gig at KOKO with Bombay Bicycle Club for Freedom from Torture. We are extremely proud to support the charity and their work providing survivors of torture with the specialist help they so desperately need.”  

Bombay Bicycle Club have released three albums in the past three years culminating in 2011's ‘A Different Kind of Fix’.  The band won the best new band at NME Awards in 2010 and recent tours have seen them headline to 10,000 at Alexandra Palace and play major festival slots at Reading, Leeds, Hyde Park and Glastonbury.   

Marika Chaplais, Freedom from Torture’s events fundraiser, said: ”We are thrilled Bombay Bicycle Club , Trophy Wife and Dan Croll are taking a stand against torture and raising vital funds for our work.  

“We want people to come to KOKO to hear the brilliant music and learn about our work to help and support survivors of torture and to raise awareness of its devastating impact.  

“Everyone who buys a ticket for this event will positively impact on the lives of torture survivors as we help them to rebuild their lives.”
