There's nothing quite like live events, and I'm so pleased that we're able to come together again to experience great music."

Other highlights of the series include appearances by Nile Rodgers and Chic as well as First Aid Kit. Peter Taylor, co-founder of Cuffe and Taylor, said: "It's going to be an epic summer of live music at this stunning and historic venue.
