Paul Weller has announced a gig at Westonbirt Arboretum on the 20th June 2009. This will be a long-awaited return for his fans, having last played some forest dates in 2004 to capacity crowds.

Described as both the ‘modfather of rock’ and ‘Britpop’s elder statesman’, Paul is ultimately acknowledged by the media, fellow musicians and the public as one of the greatest singer-songwriters of British popular music. Since his early days in The Jam, then Style Council and subsequently as a hugely successful solo artist, Paul continues to make pioneering music. Last year saw the release of the critically acclaimed number one album ‘22 Dreams’, his ninth solo album in a career spanning over three decades.

Twisted Wheel are now confirmed as Paul Weller’s support act. They were recently the main support for Oasis’s stadium shows and the NME have said the Oldham band are one of the bands to watch through 2009. Summer 2008 festival live shows were much talked about similar to early Clash and Jam shows!
