UK dance and hip-hop supremo Example will headline a show at the Eden Sessions on Saturday June 30.
Example, real name Elliot John Gleave, is fresh from the release of his third album Playing in the Shadows, which hit the top of the UK album charts in September last year. It followed 2010’s number four album Won’t Go Quietly and 2007 debut What We Made.
Devlin will be Example’s special guest at the Eden Sessions. The hip hop and grime artist’s debut album Bud, Sweat and Beers hit number 21 in the UK album chart and spawned Runaway, his most successful single so far. The song chronicles its protagonists’ escape from urban decay and their search “for the fruits from the lost garden of Eden”.
Example and Devlin join UK soul and hip-hop star Plan B (Friday July 6) and Blink-182 (Sunday July 8 - SOLD OUT) on the bill for the Eden Sessions in 2012. More acts will be announced soon.
Tickets to the Example and Devlin Eden Session cost £35 plus booking fee and go on sale to Inside Track members today (Tuesday February 21), and on general sale at 6pm on Tuesday February 28. To book, contact the Eden Box Office on 01726 811972 or visit www.edensessions.com.
