Paul Weller has announced Far From Saints as his very special guests for his Forest Live gigs in June - including Westonbirt Arboretum, near Tetbury.
Far From Saints are a new band with Kelly Jones of Stereophonics, along with Patty Lynn and Dwight Baker of US band The Wind And The Wave.
The band have recently released lead single ‘Let’s Turn This Back Around’ which is said to ‘encapsulate the irresistible magnetism that comes when two evocative voices are drawn together.’
Far From Saints will release their eponymous debut album this summer.
Seb Lowe, upcoming Oldham singer-songwriter is also confirmed as the opening act for the bill.
Commenting on the booking Paul Weller said: “Really looking forward to seeing my mate Kelly’s new project live at the forest shows. Can’t wait!”
Kelly Jones last appeared as part of Forest Live with his band Stereophonics performing two dates in 2019.
Forest Live at Westonbirt Arboretum are as follows:
Thursday 8 June Paul Weller + special guests Far From Saints and guest support Seb Lowe
Friday 9 June Tom Grennan + guests
Saturday 10 June Jack Savoretti plus special guest Natalie Imbruglia
