Klaxons have replaced James Morrison as Britain’s representative for the New Sounds Of Europe Award at the upcoming MTV Europe Video Music Awards in Munich.
Following Morrison’s withdrawal due to recording commitments, Klaxons will now join seventeen band’s from across the European continent who will be narrowed down to three via an online vote.
The three bands will then attend the awards ceremony on November 1st, with an SMS and online vote on the night selecting the eventual winner.
The winning band will then join the live line-up – which already includes My Chemical Romance and the Foo Fighters.
A spokesperson for Klaxons said: “We're excited to be the UK entrant for the NSOE award and at the prospect of performing at the EMAs in Munich to cap what has been a fantastic year for us so far."
