TV star and hitmaker Wes Nelson is to join N-Dubz as their very special guest when the chart-topping hip-hop trio head to the Yorkshire coast for a massive headline show.

Tulisa, Dappy and Fazer delighted their legions of loyal fans by reforming N-Dubz last year and announcing a series of huge outdoor gigs this summer – including Scarborough Open Air Theatre on Thursday July 20.

And they can today confirm Wes will be opening the show for them on the Yorkshire coast.

Wes’s rapid rise in the music business has seen the singer-songwriter gain more than 1.2 billion global streams and score hits in 10 countries in just two years.

After bursting onto the nation’s screens in 2018, as a finalist of the fourth series of TV and cultural phenomenon Love Island, Wes’s clear music talents sparked a major label bidding war that resulted in him signing with EMI Records.

Drive, Wes’s collaboration with Clean Bandit, was a Top 20 hit with another 100 million Spotify streams.

N-Dubz returned last year, after a decade away, with the release of their single Charmer – an instant classic – featuring their trademark storytelling via the slick raps of Dappy and Fazer, alongside the sassy vocals of Tulisa.

It added to a long line of hits which date back to 2006. N-Dubz have sold 1.3 million albums, with their first two albums Uncle B and Against All Odds certified Platinum in the UK.

The Scarborough OAT show is one of five big outdoor N-Dubz gigs next summer.
