All money raised from ‘Live At Alexandra Palace Theatre’ goes directly towards War Child’s vital work providing specialist mental health support, education, immediate aid and protection to children around the world affected by war.

Ellis’ performance in the capital leaned heavily on his acclaimed, Mercury Prize-shortlisted debut album, 2025’s ‘Blizzard’ .

He also treated the audience to five new, unreleased songs (‘The Royal Brown Hole’, ‘Two Brothers Smoking’, ‘It Barks’, ‘Marooning’, and ‘Nest Amongst Stars’) as well as his cover of ‘April The 14th, Part 1’ by Gillian Welch.

View this post on Instagram Rich Clarke, Exec Head of Music at War Child UK, said: “It’s an honour to be able to release this limited-edition vinyl with Dove Ellis.

Music is at the heart of what we do at War Child, and this record is a testament to the tangible impact artists and music lovers can have on the world when they set their minds to it.

“Children should never be a part of war.

But around the world, 520million children, from Sudan to Gaza, Ukraine to Afghanistan, are seeing their lives devastated by war.” He added: “We couldn’t be more grateful to Dove, his team, and everyone buying this album for helping us provide the world’s most vulnerable children with protection, support, and the skills to rebuild their futures.” ‘Live At Alexandra Palace Theatre’ marks the first artist release on War Child Records since the hugely successful, Mercury -nominated ‘Help(2)’ charity album.

Ellis teamed up with Anna Calvi , Ellie Rowsell of Wolf Alice , and Nilüfer Yanya on ‘Sunday Light’ from the star-studded collection.
