Teenage Cancer Trust Unseen to Stream Previously Unseen Performances from The Who, The Cure, Ed Sheeran, Paul McCartney, Muse, Them Crooked Vultures + More

The temporary closure of the Royal Albert Hall in London due to the COVID-19 pandemic meant that there would be no Teenage Cancer Trust benefit concerts in 2020 — but now, in the wake of that setback, a special YouTube series has been launched featuring previously unseen performances from iconic music acts, meant as a fundraising opportunity. It’s called Teenage Cancer Trust Unseen, and will feature a host of programming events in October.

Among the acts streaming archival footage from previous Teenage Cancer Trust events are The Cure, The Who, Paul McCartney and Them Crooked Vultures (Dave Grohl, John Paul Jones and Josh Homme), among others.
