Can’t get enough of the 1990s? Good news then, as this year’s Sunset Music Festival has announced former Westlife member Brian McFadden as a headliner for the concert gig taking place on April 19 at Zayed Sports City.
He will also be joined by British alt-rock band Toploader, pop trio Dodgy, Scottish singer Sandi Thom and Dubai-based singer Sam Tring.
Here’s a look at the acts performing:
McFadden is known for being a former member of the Irish boy band Westlife but has since found success as a solo artist. He performed in Dubai last year and is set to next month release his latest album Otis, which features covers of Otis Redding songs.
