U2 ARE SET TO PERFORM THEIR BRAND NEW SINGLE LIVE AT THE 2009 BRIT AWARDS
The BPI, the UK record labels' body, today announced the exciting news that the mighty U2, one of the world's biggest bands, will perform their brand new single Get On Your Boots live at The BRIT Awards 2009. This highly anticipated annual event takes place on Wednesday 18 February at London's Earls Court.
This year's BRIT Awards, the premiere event in the British music calendar, is shaping up to be one of the strongest yet, with U2 confirmed, Pet Shop Boys being honored with the Outstanding Contribution to Music Award and further intriguing live performances to be announced over the coming weeks. The show will be a spectacular night of great music, featuring and honoring the hottest music talent and thrilling the eleven thousand audience at Earls Court, as well as making it a must tune-in for the millions watching The BRITs live on ITV1. The BRITs will air in Australia on Channel V on Thursday 26 February at 7.30pm.
Ged Doherty, Chairman of The BRITs Committee said, "We're thrilled to be able to confirm that U2 have chosen The BRITs for their first global TV performance on their new album. Their addition to the line-up for this year’s show makes it possibly the best we have ever had. This cements The BRITs as one of the biggest TV events in the world.”
Formed in 1976, U2 consists of Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jnr. Over their three-decade career the band have sold over 140 million albums worldwide - with multiple gold, platinum and diamond certifications, and have amassed more awards than any other band. They have been awarded seven coveted BRIT Awards including five acclaimed Best International Group awards, Best Live Act and the Outstanding Contribution to Music Award in 2001.
With several chart topping albums under their belt, U2 will release their forthcoming album No Line on the Horizon - tipped as their best to date - and join the prestigious line up at The BRIT Awards 2009 ceremony at Earls Court, London on Wednesday 18 February.
