Frank, 35, commented: "I'm honoured to have been asked to be part of "Give A Home". Raising awareness of refugee issues, with Amnesty International, is vitally important; and it helps that I love playing house shows.

So it's great to be involved."

Jessie, 32, added: "It's an honour and a pleasure to be a part of this campaign. I'm really looking forward to being involved, listening to the other artists and most importantly raising money and awareness for an incredibly important issue."

Kate Tempest, The Naked and Famous, Oh Wonder and The National have also been confirmed to participate in the first-of-its-kind event, which will take place on September 20 in partnership with VICE and Facebook Live.
