We can't envisage Sigma linking up with the Sex Pistols any time soon, but they have opted to pull out of a concert organised by 'Brexit' campaigners. 

Taking place at Birmingham's Genting Arena on Sunday 8th May, Bpoplive was organised to encourage young people to vote by Leave.EU - a campaign group in favour of Britain leaving the EU when the referendum is held in June. 

Pt 3. We're not available for hire by politicians trying to use us to speak to you, our fans.

Ella Eyre and Pixie Lott were also rumoured to be playing, although both have quashed the claims.

Other bands caught in the confusion include garage act DJ Luck and MC Neat, The Electric Swing Circus and Phats & Smalls. All are still set to appear on with more acts still to be announced.
