Paul’s latest release True Meanings — his 14th solo album — entered the UK charts at No 2.

Thanks to hit releases like Wild Wood, Wake Up The Nation and Sonik Kicks, he has become known as a versatile and creative force across the generations.

“The Forest shows are always great gigs for us and it’s been a while since I last did them so I’m really looking forward to them this year,” he said.
