Uncut is reporting that the unlikely pair will be teaming up for 2-off shows this June (the 9th and 10th). Freedom Rocks, for those unfamiliar, commemorates the end of the slave trade in Britian. Other organizations involved this time around include Anti-Slavery International, Fight For Freedom Campaign & MOBO.The gigs will take place in the fair trade city of Hull in East Park.
Festival organizer Dave Grindle has said: "We feel that the 200th anniversary of the abolition of the slave trade in Britain deserves national and international recognition. As well putting the event together we are keen to play a part in developing awareness of Wilberforce's achievements and today's human rights issues. This will be an important celebration and will have a positive impact on the local community as Hull becomes the focus of this bi-centenary."
