Dec 24 2009 Runcorn and Widnes Weekly News

BRIT Award winner and the biggest-selling British male solo artist of 2006, James Morrison, is performing at Delamere Forest in the summer.

A woodland clearing will be temporarily transformed into a concert arena creating a safe and relaxed atmosphere for gig-goers.

James Morrison was first recognised with his first album, Undiscovered, which established him as a talented singer-songwriter and sold more than two million copies.

He then brought out five singles – You Give Me Something, Wonderful World, The Pieces Don’t Fit Anymore, Undiscovered and One Last Chance.

He went on to win an award for British best male in 2007.

His second album sold a million- plus, with his most recent single, Broken Strings featuring Nelly Furtado. His other hit singles include You Make it Real and Please Don’t Stop the Rain.

Morrison will be performing two 2010 concerts as part of Forestry Commission Live Music, where artists will perform in several spectacular woodland locations across the country to encourage people to visit forests.

Forestry Commission Live Music is also involved in a variety of environmental and social projects.

Tickets for the event, on Saturday, July 3, 2010, are now on sale at £31 (subject to booking fee). They can be bought from the Forestry Commission box office by phoning 01842 814 612 or at www.forestry.gov.uk/ music.
