Her 1997 release, "Come On Over" became the best-selling studio album of all time by a female act in any genre and the best-selling country music album, featuring iconic hits like "Man! I Feel Like a Woman!" and "You're Still the One''.
Known for her empowering lyrics and dynamic stage presence, Twain has won numerous awards, including five GRAMMYs, and has sold over 100 million records, securing her position as the best-selling female country artist and one of the all-time music greats.

Rag’n’Bone Man has played sold out tours around the globe and delivered hair-raising performances, including at the BRIT Awards & Olympics Homecoming Concert, and will bring his unmissable show to Chepstow Summer Sessions.
