The Faces are reuniting for a show in London next month without frontman Rod Stewart.
The Faces are reuniting for a show in London next month.
The surviving members of the pair will get together for the gig at London's Royal Albert Hall although legendary frontman Rod Stewart will not be joining them.
Ronnie Wood, Ian McLagen and Kenny Jones will play in aid of the Performing Rights Society's Music Members' Benevolent Fund with guest vocalists including Simply Red's Mick Hucknall, former Spice Girl Mel C and Kiki Dee joining them.
Paying tribute to former bass player Ronnie Lane, who passed away in 1997, Ronnie Wood said: "This will be so special for us, staging a reunion for such a greatful and prestigious event. Sadly Ronnie Lane can't be with us, but I'm sure he will be there in spirit, God bless him."
Although it is not known why Rod is not performing with the pair who originally split in 1975 rumours of a reunion have followed the band for some time. Late last year Rod Stewart confirmed the band would reunite for a tour, but he then fell out with Ronnie, supposedly over how much the guitarist would be paid to perform at the shows.
