On Sunday 14 July 2019, Grace Jones will top the main stage bill, bringing with her songs from her four decade-long career taken from hit albums such as Warm Leatherette, Living My Life and Nightclubbing. Influencing the likes of Lady Gaga and Rihanna, Grace Jones celebrates a pop influence like no other.
