Electronic whizz-kid Four Tet is amongst the acts set to participate in this month's Oxfam event.
One of Britain's most high profile charities, Oxfam are also closely linked to the music scene. Arctic Monkeys released singles through their shops, while the upcoming Oxjam events boast a cracking line up.
Due to take place in September, Oxfam's main London store is set to play host to some very special shows. Electronic artist Four Tet is set to perform, bringing his acclaimed live show to Oxjam.
One of the most acclaimed producers in electronic music, Four Tet's live show mixes left field material with some direct, pulsating techno influences. Now displaying his garage and hip hop influences, the producer has spent the summer playing festivals across Europe.
The month long event will also include Scottish newcomers Pearl & The Puppets, dan le sac vs Scroobius Pip and more. With their new album on the horizon, The Charlatans have agreed to give up their time for Oxfam, arranging a special set.
Joined by The Horrors' Tom Furse, The Charlatans will play Oxfam's main London store on September 27th. Frontman Tim Burgess was clearly delighted to be taking part, saying: "We've been playing shows for 20 years now, but performing in an Oxfam shop has to go down as the most unusual venue we've ever played."
"I've been buying music from Oxfam shops for years, so it's great to be able to take our music onto the shop floor and kick off a whole month of great music with a global impact."
Oxjam isn't just restricted to London, with events taking place across the length and breadth of the UK. Attempting to raise money in order to battle poverty and starvation, the festivals comes to a head across the weekend of October 23rd - 24th.
Dubbed the 'Oxjam Takeover Weekend' a total of 31 mini-festivals will take place across the length of the UK.
