British rock stars including Richard Ashcroft, Paul Weller and Liam Gallagher of Oasis1 fame will play a charity gig next month to raise funds for the British Red Cross Japan Tsunami2 Appeal.

英国摇滚明星将于下月举办一场慈善演出,为英国红十字会日本海啸援助项目募捐,理查德·阿什克罗夫、保罗·威勒、以及“绿洲乐队”的主唱利亚姆·加拉格尔等大牌纷纷加盟。

The benefit concert will be held at the Brixton O2 Academy in south London on April 3, and the lineup includes Beady Eye, the band which Gallagher formed after Oasis broke up, Primal3 Scream, The Coral and Graham Coxon of Blur4.

"With images beamed worldwide as they occurred, the horrific tragedy that beset5 Japan in recent days has affected6 everybody," Beady Eye said in a statement on its website.

"In response, a collection of Britain's finest rock musicians have heeded7(注意,留心) the rallying call and come together to present a very special one-off event.

"Beady Eye -- who still have fond memories of their concert in Sendai as Oasis in 2002 -- are delighted their idea for a benefit gig has come together so quickly and with such fantastic support."

The concert follows Monday's announcement that Universal Music was putting together a digital-only album featuring tracks from some of its leading artists, including Justin Bieber and U2, to raise money for victims of the Japanese disaster.

More than 9,000 people have been confirmed dead after the March 11 earthquake and resulting tsunami, while more than 13,500 are reported missing.

Tickets to the concert go on sale from Friday morning and can be ordered via www.gigsandtours.com, www.ticketweb.co.uk and www.ticketmaster.co.uk.
