Richard Ashcroft is set to play a one-off solo gig in London next month, it's been announced.

The show, at the Union Chapel, will incorporate songs from the former Verve star's back-catalogue as well as his new material with the United Nations Of Sound.

The majority of tickets are available to members of the Richard Ashcroft fan club, although a very limited number will go on general sale on Monday (November 29), with proceeds going to the charity Warchild.

Ashcroft released his latest album 'United Nations Of Sound' earlier this year.
