Pearl Jam, Stevie Wonder and Paul McCartney headline the Main Stage on Friday 25th, Saturday 26th & Sunday 27th June respectively. While the more intimate Pepsi Max Stage has headline performances from The Hives, Melissa Etheridge and Joshua Radin.

Even with so many summer music festivals in the UK it is still difficult to get concert tickets, especially when artists are only playing a select few shows.

Friday is certainly going to be the loudest ‘hard rock’ of the three days as Pearl Jam return to the UK for what promises to be a special show.  Hailing from Seattle and part of grunge movement of the early 1990’s along with bands like Nirvana and Soundgarden. Last year they released their ninth studio album, Backspacer.  They will be supported by the likes of Wolfmother, Gaslight Anthem and Ben Harper.

Supporting Stevie Wonder for a much more of a soulful line up will be the original space cowboy Jamiroquai, James Morrison and Corrie Bailey Rae.

Following an appearance at the Isle Of Wight Festival, Paul McCartney will no doubt be playing a selection of festival crowd pleasers including songs from The Beatles, Wings and his solo career; and will be ably supported by Elvis Costello, Crosby Stills & Nash, and Crowded House.

The Christians

The Christians had a string of soul-inspired pop hits in the late 1980’s and early 1990’s including Forgotten Town, Born Again,When the Fingers Point, Ideal World, Father, Perfect Moment, What’s in a Word and cover versions of Harvest for the World and The Bottle.

Next month, The Christians release their brand new single Where Do the Children Play.

The name ‘Christians’ refers to the brother’s surname (the original line up included Roger, Russell and Garry Christian as well as Henry Priestman). During their rise to fame the Liverpool based band developed a reputation for being ’socially aware’ and unsurprisingly comparisons were drawn to The Temptations due to the depth and range of the brother’s magical vocal harmonies.

Fast forward a few years and The Christians have a new line up which includes Stewart Boyle, Joey Ankrah, Lionel Duke and Cliff Watson.  The vibe is relaxed … unplugged and acoustic but the voice is still incredible as is the sultry smile behind the Raybans!

The band are to release a new single in February via Island records to celebrate almost a quarter of a century of making music and can be seen live at the following dates later this month:
