Craig David announces Dalby Forest gig

Craig David announced he will be playing a gig at Dalby Forest this summer.

The performance is part of the Forestry Commission’s Forest Live music series.

From a UK Garage pioneer to a mainstream multi-million seller, Craig David became one of the UK music scene’s most successful male solo artists since the 2000 release of his critically-acclaimed debut album ‘Born To Do It’.

Top 10 singles over the period include ‘Fill Me In’, ‘7 Days’, ‘Walking Away’, ‘What’s Your Flava’, ‘Hot Stuff (‘Let’s Dance’)’, and the duet with Sting, ‘Rise And Fall’.

He recently returned to music and in 2016 released a No 1 Album 'Following My Intuition'. It featured singles When The Bassline Drops’ a collaboration with grime artist Big Narstie and follow up single ‘Nothing Like This’ an alliance with dance duo Blonde.

Forest Live is an independent programme organised by the Forestry Commission to bring forests to new audiences. Income generated from ticket sales is spent on protecting, improving and expanding England’s forests and woodlands and increasing their value to people and wildlife.

Over Forest Live’s 16 years history, money raised has contributed to a wide range of projects, from wildlife conservation to making improvements for visitors.
