Soul II Soul will also appear on the same night as Chic. Bonobo headline day one on the Friday.

More big names to announce for this lovely pocket festival held on a private park at Moseley on 5,6,7 July 2013, a stone's throw from Birmingham's city centre.

Last year's event was a triumph, with each day sold out and a sparkling line-up including George Clinton's Parliament-Funkadelic, The Family Stone, Fred Wesley and Odyssey.

Blues & Soul were there in the thick of the action in 2012, and will be back this year to bring you pictures, reviews and interviews - PLUS exclusive backstage news and live Twitter/Facebook feeds over the three days.

Bring on the summer................
