Free Radio Live comes to Birmingham's Genting Arena tomorrow
The most popular pop bands of the year will line up for the West Midlands' biggest pop party at Birmingham's Genting Arena tomorrow.
Free Radio Live 2016 will feature a galaxy of big names. Little Mix (pictured) will line up with Olly Murs, Craig David, Busted, Clean Bandit, Professor Green, Sigala, Dua Lipa, Louise Johnson and X Factor sensation Calum Scott.
Little Mix formed in 2011 during the eighth series of X Factor and are the only group to win the competition. They signed with Simon Cowell's Syco Music and feature Jade Thirwall, Perrie Edwards, Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Jesy Nelson.
The band have released four albums, including their new record, Glory Days, which was out last week. That was preceded by Get Weird, Salute and DNA, which all reached the top four of the chart and sold at least 300,000 copies.
Band members are never far from the headlines and in recent days Jesy Nelson has been splashed across the tabloids following her split from Jake Roche. She was criticised after appearing on a TV cook show, when she was unable to cut a bread roll in half and laughed about being hungover.
Craig David has enjoyed a superlative year after enjoying a crazy career revival.
He returned to the charts after almost a decade in the wilderness.
He said: "Do you know what? It's overwhelming. The love that I've seen from people has been crazy."
