Not sure if it's been posted before but it's taking place this weekend so :)

 

The Nordoff Robbins annual star-studded 02 Silver Clef Awards is set to rock The Hilton, Park Lane as multi-platinum, multi award-winning Devon rock act Muse will be awarded the coveted 02 Silver Clef Award. This year’s 35th infamous awards luncheon held to raise money for Nordoff Robbins will be hosted by British music mogul Sharon Osbourne. The event will take place on Friday 2nd July and will be attended by guests including the music industry’s high fliers, artists, celebrities and supporters of Nordoff Robbins.

 

Update!

We are proud to announce that Scouting For Girls, JLS, Tony Bennett, Russell Watson and Dizzee Rascal will also be accepting awards on the day, and there are still more awards winners and attendees to be announced.

 

Relentless, innovative and creatively uncompromising, Muse has garnered extraordinary critical praise and built a fanatically loyal international fan following. Their latest and fifth studio album “The Resistance ” has been called “Astonishing … the UK rock record of the year,” by NME, while Q raved, “For sheer bravado and imagination Absolution is something that few bands will top”.

 

The band are currently busy touring the US, and are set to headline at both world-famous American Coachella festival in April, and then Glastonbury in June, but will not miss the opportunity to pick up their coveted award at this year’s Silver Clef Awards.

 

Muse said “We are delighted to be presented this year’s Nordoff Robbins Silver Clef and join the ranks of such Artistes as Robert Plant, David Bowie, Pink Floyd, Elton John & The Who. Nordoff Robbins is an exceptional charity that has a positive impact on so many people’s lives, and we are very proud to be recognised by them in this way”

 

The irrepressible Sharon Osbourne will be the hostess at this year’s inaugural show held at London’s Hilton. The music manager, celebrity and wife of singer-songwriter Ozzy Osbourne is delighted to be keeping this years show in order.

 

Sharon said “Nordoff Robbins is one of my favourite charities, I look forward to what’s looking like a fabulous day.”

 

Sharon came into public prominence after appearing in MTV show The Osbournes. She later became a judge on the talent shows The X Factor and America’s Got Talent. Her autobiography, Extreme, has sold in excess of two million copies.

 

It seemed the perfect fit for Sharon to present the awards given her own success in the industry. She formed her own international company, Sharon Osbourne Management, created two record labels, became a concert tour producer, film producer, five-days-a-week talk show host and started a charity, all at the same time as nurturing her family.

 

With an impressive roll call of previous Award winners and industry favorites, including Take That, Oasis, Paul Weller and Coldplay, this year’s event will be no exception and will feature winners of the highest talents and caliber. Now in its impressive 35th year, the 02 Silver Clef Awards Lunch is a highlight in the music social calendar.. The event, which has so far raised over £7.5million for Nordoff Robbins, also features an auction of one-off music memorabilia items and other money-can’t-buy items.
