Noel Gallagher, Them Crooked Vultures, JLS For Teenage Cancer Trust Gigs

Noel Gallagher, Them Crooked Vultures, Arctic Monkeys, The Specials, The Who and JLS have all been lined up for the Teenage Cancer Trust gigs at London's Royal Albert Hall this February and March.

The flurry of new acts join the already confirmed Suede and Depeche Mode at the charity series curated by The Who's Roger Daltrey.

Former Oasis star Noel Gallagher will play a two night residency in what will be his only shows of 2010. It will be the fifth time Gallagher has performed at the Teenage Cancer Trust gigs.

Roger Daltrey enthused about the shows: "It's a blinder. I'm over the moon. It will be Noel's only gigs this year, so those nights will be special."

Asked by The Sun whether JLS are too commercial for the TCT gigs, Daltrey responded: "Kids have to start somewhere and JLS are for young people. Music snobs might turn their noses up but there's no place for them in the business."

Tickets for the shows go on sale from 9am this Friday (February 5).

The shows are as follows:

• Depeche Mode – February 17
• Them Crooked Vultures - March 22
• Jimmy Carr, Noel Fielding and Rod Gilbert – 23
• Suede – 24
• Noel Gallagher – 25/26
• Arctic Monkeys - 27
• JLS – 28
• The Specials – 29
• The Who - 30
