James Morrison wasn’t caught earlier this year running around Epping Forest wearing only a strategically-placed oak leaf, smeared in lemon curd and interfering with nature. This, and some musical talent, perfectly qualifies him for his latest challenge: performing in a wood.

They made beautiful music together at Madison Square Gardens. It was a collaboration so astoundingly gravy that they got nominated for not one, not three, but two Grammys, which is pretty bloody good. Now, rocking sexagenarians Steve Winwood and Eric Clapton have announced they’re giving their relationship another go with a jaunt around Europe.

Snow Patrol would be a great title for an action/adventure show starring David Hasslehoff or Chuck Norris or, dare I say it, both. Until the media powers that be make it though, it'll be best known as a top Indie Rock band's second choice of title. Their first was 'Polar Bear'. See? They didn't even want it! Chuck, Hoff, are you reading this? Imagine how unstoppable you'd be combined. Imagine... The Chuff. Click Here to Compare & Buy Snow Patrol Tickets

The Wild Beasts sound like what a sound technician might dream about after eating a packet of Cheesos too many. They’re a little odd, slightly ambient, vaguely indie, a touch gothy and a lot of other things beside, including nuts. Click Here to Compare & Buy Wild Beasts Tickets

When she was only 16-ish, singer and occasional model Rihanna popped over to the US to see if she could get into the singing game. By the time she was 18-ish, she was using money to clean the grime out of her other money and then throwing both away. This is foolish behaviour unless you’ve suddenly become a respected and successful R ‘n’ B star. Luckily for Rihanna… Click here for Rihanna Tickets.
