Bryan Adams<\/a>, Mel C<\/a>, Cassyette<\/a> and more have been announced to play the Friday edition of Sheffield\u2019s Rock N Roll Circus 2025.<\/p>\n

The festival held at Don Valley Bowl will return from August 27-30 this year, where Queens Of The Stone Age<\/a>, James<\/a>, Reverend & The Makers<\/a> have been announced to headline.<\/p>\n

Now, Bryan Adams will join the ranks, replacing the previously announced Wombats<\/a> as headliners for the festival\u2019s Friday show on August 29. Excitingly, Spice Girls<\/a>\u2018 Mel C has also been announced to be supporting Bryan as a special guest.<\/p>\n

The singer previously duetted with Adams the 1998 song \u2018When You\u2019re Gone\u2019 as Mel\u2019s first single outside the iconic girl group, and she could potentially collaborate with Adams on stage.<\/p>\n

Adams and Mel will also be joined by \u2018Dream Catch Me\u2019 singer Newton Faulkner,<\/a> electro-rock musician Cassyette<\/a> and indie folk artist Nell Mescal.<\/a> Somebody\u2019s Child, Ashley Singh, Deco, Bethany Grace, Crystal Tides, Femur, The Crookes, Sundress, Charlie Floyd, and Alice Ede will round out Friday\u2019s lineup.<\/p>\n

Festival director Ali O\u2019Reilly said of the news: \u201cWe\u2019re incredibly excited to welcome Bryan Adams to Rock N Roll Circus. His catalogue of hits and legendary live performances are the stuff of rock folklore, and having him headline Friday night means fans are in for a real treat.\u201d<\/p>\n

Adams has recently wrapped up the \u2018Roll With The Punches\u2019 tour, stopping by the UK for an arena tour this month<\/a>. He is set to drop his latest album of the same name on the day that he headlines Rock N Roll Circus.<\/p>\n

Recently, Bryan Adams shared the origins of his \u201cfirst real six-string\u201d from \u2018Summer Of \u201969\u2019<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Contrary to the song\u2019s lyrics, the guitar was not bought at a \u201cfive and dime\u201d, but at a music shop in Reading in 1970, when he was 12-years-old. Upon living in Israel for a year with his father, who worked for the Canadian embassy, Adams left his guitar in the country when he moved back to Canada.<\/p>\n

Adams then went on to say he received an email from a stranger asking if he\u2019d like his original guitar back. Though Adams enthusiastically agreed, he never heard from the person again \u2013 until 10 years later.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m in a club in Berlin and this guy walks to me and he said, \u2018Brian, I have your guitar. I have the guitar from your childhood.\u2019\u201d The man then told Adams he was a friend of the person who had emailed him years earlier, who had sadly died in a plane crash; he inherited the guitar and wanted to fulfil his late friend\u2019s wish of returning it to Adams.<\/p>\n

In other news, Adams confirmed the launch of his own record label<\/a>, and celebrated the announcement by sharing a new double A-side single.<\/p>\n
