John Newman

John Newman has announced a Yorkshire Forest Live date for 2016 as part of the annual summer concert series organised by the Forestry Commission.

Born and raised in North Yorkshire and a student of Leeds College of Music, John Newman first came to attention through his work with Rudimental producing the No 1 single ‘Feel The Love’. A No 1 platinum selling debut album ‘Tribute’ soon followed which included singles ‘Cheating’, ‘Losing Sleep’ and the gargantuan hit ‘Love Me Again’. A further collaboration with Calvin Harris generated the hit single ‘Blame.’ Newman’s sophomore album ‘Revolve’ includes lead single ‘Come and Get It’ and coincides with the release of ‘Revolve: The Book’, which documents the creative process behind the album and past hits.

Commenting on the show, John Newman said, 'I have heard a lot about the famous Dalby Forest gigs and I am extremely pleased to be playing there as it will be a home county gig for me. I hope you can join me and my band to make it a really special night out amongst the trees'.
