Nile Rodgers will be joining the likes of Will Young, PJ Harvey and French rock-outfit Phoenix for the three-day festival at Lulworth Castle in May.

DJ Rob da Bank, who founded the festival, promised the line up would get better and better and has even offered festival-goers the chance to to spread out the payments of their tickets.

And to put him in the concert mood, Nile will be directing a concert in New York in aid of the ‘UN Breaking the Silence, Beating the Drum Against Slave Trade’ commemoration event on the 25th March.
