Rock out to the pure dance-pop of Pixie Lott, as the British songstress takes the stage on Saturday August 4 to make it All About Tonight.

A firm favourite in the charts since the release of her debut album Turn It Up in 2009 – which spawned five top-twenty mega-hits, including number ones Mama Do and Boys and Girls – Pixie has spent the time since honing her poptastic, fairy dust-sprinkled musical style. With her second album Young Foolish Happy and her self-titled third album, Lott’s sound matured into the sassy R&B of ‘Nasty’. At the age of only 24, she packed all of this pop power into a greatest hits compilation Platinum Pixie: Hits.

LoveBN1Fest ticket holders have yet another reason to celebrate, with news that pop newcomer Raye has been added to the main-stage bill for Sunday, August 5 at theLoveBN1Fest .

The 20-year-old South Londoner already has plenty of experience under her belt. Since releasing the first of her two EPs four years ago, Raye’s feet have barely touched the ground. She provided knock-out vocals on Jonas Blue’s house mega-hit 2016 By Your Side and Jax Jones’ single You Don’t Know Me the same year, has collaborated with mega-rapper Nas, supported Years & Years, and Jess Glynne on her arena tour – and was short-listed for BBC Music Sound of… 2017 award, coming in at third place.

More artist will be announced for both days of the Pride Festival every day this week.
