The past two days an eclectic mix of artists performed outide the Tate Modern to add their voice to protests aiming to make ending poverty a priority at next week's G8 conferences.
The event publicised a movement which asked people to verbalise their support, either by tweeting, or signing a petition to stop poverty. Musicians from all different genre's performed, and the live acts were supplemented by video's showing other artists covering protest songs.
There was a 25 minute film shown at 10pm each night on the side of the tate building by Richard Curtis that tracked protests which have changed humaintarian history, highlighting the influential speeches, individuals, and songs which accompanied, and in many instances motivated them.
Gigwise were there on the Wednesday night, and saw Biffy Clyro perform a secret acoustic set.
Have a look at those who were performing.
