Pioneering grime artist Dizzee Rascal has joined the line-up for a string of summer concerts.

Since bursting onto the music scene with the release of his debut album Boy in da Corner in 2003, Dizzee Rascal has scored four No. 1 singles and five Top 10 albums.

The Mercury Prize winner has worked with artists such as Calvin Harris, Arctic Monkeys, Shakira and Robbie Williams and is recognised as one of the UK’s most successful grime artists.

For his Dreamland concert, the seven-time BRIT nominee will be supported by Mike Skinner of The Streets.

The singer, who now performs as a solo artist, will be putting on a DJ set with anthems from a mix of genres, including old-school hip-hop, drum and bass and dance.

Music producer and multi-instrumentalist DJ Badger will also take to the stage ahead of the main act.
