Ed Sheeran and Liam Gallagher are set to perform at this year's Brit Awards next month.

They are joining Dave, Doja Cat, Holly Humberston and Little Simz who are all taking to the stage.

Liam Gallagher's fans will be in for a treat as he revealed on Twitter that he will be playing his new single Everything's Electric.

"I'm gonna be performing my new single Everything’s Electric at the Brit Awards this year and I’d appreciate it if you stopped what you were doing and tuned in cheers," he said.

Little Simz, who is up for four awards including Artist of the Year, said it was "an honour" to be nominated and that she "can’t wait" to get on stage at the awards show.

"I'm so happy and grateful the music has connected and resonated," she said.

This year's Brit Awards are set to do things differently, scrapping male and female categories, introducing gender-neutral gongs in their place.

Prizes will be handed out to the artist of the year and the international artist of the year, replacing best male and female solo artist and best international male and female solo artist.

The Brits academy has faced pressure to do away with its male and female-specific awards and says the move will celebrate artists "solely for their music and work, rather than how they choose to identify or as others may see them, as part of The Brits' commitment to evolving the show to be as inclusive and as relevant as possible".
