Toploader's live career began playing with Coldplay and  Muse in small venues across the UK. They later went on to back  Paul Weller,  Robbie Williams  and  Bon Jovi, becoming the last British band to play the original  Wembley Stadium.

As  an alternative rock band from Eastbourne  who formed in 1997, with over two million album sales and a string of top 20 hits both home and abroad. Their debut album, Onka's Big Moka, sold over one million copies    and peaked in the Top 5 of the  UK Albums Chart. They are recognised most of all for their cover of   King Harvest's US hit "Dancing in the Moonlight" written by Sherman Kelly, which became a global hit for the band. Their second album, Magic Hotel, reached number 3 in the   UK Albums Chart. Their third album was released in 2012; their comeback single "Turn It Around" was released in 2013. 

They   are    playing   here for a reduced fee this year  in support   of   "   Musicians   Against   Homelessness   ", who raise funds for " Crisis",   and without   this   we   simply   would not   be   able   to   have   such a class act   perform.   So come to the  main marquee and enjoy  the show!

And   a   big   thanks   to   Emma  from  "MAH"and " Crisis",      for   making   this   possible. x

Emma Flowers is a country/blues singer-songwriter, born in the wrong place to be a country artist, but the right place to write songs that reflect the struggle of ordinary people, their lives, their dreams and their tragedies I don’t write music to make money; I don’t write songs to sell anything. I write songs because I have to. Its the only way I can deal with the craziness of a world of such inequality and unfairness.
