Rap-pop five-piece Y.O.U.N.G will join James Arthur for his reschedule­d headline show at Scarboroug­h Open Air Theatre on August 12.

The man behind such worldwide hits as ‘Impossible’ and ‘Say You Won’t Let Go’ is returning to Europe’s largest open-air theatre following the cancellati­on of his show last month due to adverse weather conditions.

Y.O.U.N.G, who have already performed at the venue twice this summer supporting both Emeli Sandé and The Script, will open the show for James.

The return show also comes after a series of summer festival dates which has seen the Manchester-based band earn an army of new fans as well as massive hype around their rework of live set fan-favourite ‘What I Gotta Do’ in celebratio­n of the World Cup.

The five-piece are Chez Davis (vocals/guitar), Benjamin James (rap), Jamie Skehan (guitar), Tom Whitehead (bass) and Graeme Smith (drums).

Singer Chez said: “Scarboroug­h is beginning to feel like home this summer.

“We’ve already had two great shows there and are delighted we’re now on the bill to support James Arthur.

“This feels like the perfect fit for our fanbase and hopefully we’ll pick up a new legion of fans on the night.”

Y.O.U.N.G replace original support Nina Nesbitt who is unavailabl­e for the reschedule­d date. Tickets available from the OAT box office.
