Victoria French, Assistant Director of Culture and Events said:
'At last, all those patient fans who have held onto tickets from last year and beyond will get their chance to see headliners Kaiser Chiefs and Deacon Blue in a lovely parkland setting next summer bang in the middle of Sunderland's City Centre at Mowbray Park. And now we are super-thrilled that the incredible Jack Savoretti has agreed to perform.'
Jack Savoretti's seventh albumEuropiana scored him a second #1 album this summer. His previous album, Singing to Strangers also reached #1 in the UK charts. This artist is someone audiences are really taking to their heart.
Europiana captures the spirit of the songs and the sun-soaked influences they absorb. Think Riviera glamour and Italian elegance. Grab a rosé - heck, the whole bottle - to spur memories of lunches that last until dusk and heading home with loved ones to dance until dawn.
