Paul Weller has been unveiled as the first act for next year’s Forest Live.
The summer concert series is promoted by the Forestry Commission to raise money for forest sustainability and will see a number of gigs held across seven UK forests.
It marks Paul’s second time taking part, following his involvement in 2004. He says: “The Forest shows are always great gigs for us and it’s been a while since I last did them so I’m really looking forward to them next year.”
