Wireless Festival 2009 Sponsored By Barclaycard

Headlining the second stage on Saturday at Wireless is no easy ride after last year's line-up which saw Underworld pack the tent and almost bring down the roof. - That Mike Skinner and The Streets are up to the task isn't in doubt after a career encompassing four critically acclaimed albums, (including the number one and triple platinum ‘A Grand Don't Come For Free’ and the number one album ‘The Hardest Way To Make An Easy Living’, numerous massive singles and a well deserved reputation for superb live shows. 

From breakthrough track, ‘Has It Come To This’, Mike Skinner has pioneered modern British dance music and influenced countless other acts whilst giving British youth a new vocabulary. The man himself is ready and waiting for July to come round:

“I am excited about returning to the site of my favourite ever gig - when Daft Punk played at Wireless 2007. This year we will be performing just before Basement Jaxx who I remember introduced me to my French idols on that hot Hyde Park evening two years ago. Hyde Park will hopefully be as hot this year and someone else will enjoy their favourite ever gig”.
