Fightstar mainman to co-host Katie P's rockshow

Fightstar vocalist Charlie Simpson will be co-hosting the XFM Rock Show live this Saturday night (February 21) with Kerrang!'s Katie P for a special four-hour celebration of British Rock Music.

"I am seriously excited about being invited to co-host the XFM Rock Show with Katie P," says Simpson. "We will be playing some storming classics, airing some newer talent, and showcasing the very best of British rock - highlighting just how much musical brilliance this nation has to offer."

"What's more," adds the frontman, "We might, if the mood takes us, even chuck in a little acoustic session too.... A one off treat for all who tune in!"

Also on this week's show, Katie P will have the exclusive first play of Malefice's new track End Of Days, a live session from Welsh newcomers Attack! Attack!, new tunes from In Case Of Fire and Outcry Collective, plus a chance to win tickets to a sold-out, intimate Enter Shikari London show and tickets to see You Me At Six!

The XFM Rock Show will air from 10pm til' 2am on Saturday night, and is available on FM dials in London at 104.9FM and Manchester 97.7FM, as well as on Digital DAB radio and streaming online at www.xfm.co.uk.
