Weller, Coldplay & More To Play At Brits

Acts set to appear at this year's Brit Awards include Paul Weller and Coldplay, organisers have revealed.

Paul Weller, who is to receive an award for his outstanding contribution to music, will finish the show in his first ever Brits appearance. Other acts confirmed for the night are Coldplay, the Kaiser Chiefs, Kelly Clarkson, KT Tunstall and Kanye West. Organisers will reveal more at a later date.

They said veteran-rocker Weller's award is the highest honour in the UK record industry. A spokesman said: “It is reserved for those whose influence, longevity and creativity put them in the very top ranks of UK artists. Paul Weller is an artist who scores on every measure and typifies the range and quality of British music at its best.”

The ceremony will be hosted by Chris Evans for the second year running.
