“Let me buy you a drink.”

In a UK festival exclusive, rapper/singer/producer (and whatever else he does, because he does a lot) T-Pain has announced that he will be visiting our shores with a headline performance at this year’s Strawberries & Creem festival.

Taking place Saturday June 16th, the festival returns to the majestic setting of Cambridge. Continuing to shake off the town’s reputation of being purely an academic hub, Strawberries & Creem has announced yet another diverse lineup that sees autotune visionary T-Pain at the helm, plus the likes of Not3s, Kojo Funds, Heidi, Shy FX and everyone’s favourite DJ, David Rodigan, all on the bill of exciting names.

Further appearances include a garage allstars showcase from DJ Luck & MC Neat, Pied Piper and Nay Nay, plus Drake co-signed UK Funky pioneer Crazy Cousinz, and an uplifting performance scheduled from House Gospel Choir.

Elsewhere, Jackathon head honcho Heidi heads up Strawberries & Creem’s house and techno contingent, alongside fast rising talent Latmun and pan-atlantic star Secondcity.

Continuing to grow year on year, Strawberries & Creem reflects a fresh, millennial audience that has been at the heart of the grime and garage rebirth over the past five years – with some of its founders either juggling full-time jobs or still at University. As part of their fifth year celebrations, the festival will expand in size for 2018, but will retain their authentic, grassroots values that have been key in their success.
