Little Noise tickets go on sale

Monday 10 October 2011

Elbow and Sinead O’Connor among the headliners of Mencap’s sixth Little Noise Sessions

Elbow

Each year, Mencap’s Little Noise Sessions, hosted by DJ Jo Whiley, bring together new talent and some of the biggest names in music.

Tickets for this year’s Little Noise Sessions are now on sale.

This year, the gigs will take place from 22 to 27 November, at a new home, the St John at Hackney church, London.

The line-up includes Elbow (pictured), Marina & The Diamonds, Goldfrapp, Example and Sinead O’Connor.

Elbow front-man Guy Garvey said: “We are dead proud to be added to the list of amazing bands that have done the Little Noise Sessions for Jo Whiley and Mencap. In fact we have organised a warm-up tour of Europe before the show to make sure we are in tip-top condition when we play!”

Jo Whiley said: “Mencap’s Little Noise Sessions are back for the sixth successful year and we’re excited to be moving to St John at Hackney – a venue that in its 700 year history has never played host to a music gig like this! Each year, we aim to surprise and inspire the audience, with a week of unbelievable shows coupled with a simply stunning backdrop.”

Very sadly the Elbow concert has been turned into a bonanza for ticket touts. All the tickets sold out this morning within seconds and now they are all on Viagogo, Getmein and eBay at more than double face value. Are these companies going to make a donation? I doubt it.
