DF CONCERTS have today revealed the first bands to play the inaugural Edinburgh Summer Sessions line-up including Kasabian, Tom Jones, Rag ‘N’ Bone Man and Paloma Faith.

These four outstanding artists are the first to be announced for the new festival Edinburgh Summer Sessions, a bespoke version of its sister event Glasgow Summer Sessions. The shows will take place at the Ross Bandstand, in front of the breath-taking backdrop of Edinburgh Castle – providing a brand new music strand to the Edinburgh Fringe.

Edinburgh Summer Sessions’ artists will be part of festival history as they contribute to the city’s exciting new era of music in Princes Street Gardens. With Tom Jones, Rag’n’Bone Man, Paloma Faith and Kasabian already confirmed as headliners at the gigs, fans have even more to look forward to, and should stay tuned to smmrsessions.com / @smmrsessions on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram for more announcements coming soon.

Geoff Ellis, CEO of DF Concerts said: “We’re delighted to return to Princes Street Gardens and  announce our first artists for the inaugural series of Edinburgh Summer Sessions shows. With the success of its sister event Glasgow Summer Sessions, we’re thrilled to be part of Edinburgh’s electrifying atmosphere and culturally rich arts festival with these gigs. To have a legend like Tom Jones plus mainstays of the industry like Kasabian and Paloma Faith and the undeniably talented Rag’n’Bone Man proves our commitment to making Edinburgh Summer Sessions one of the real highlights of the summer.”
