GAVIN and Stacey star Mathew Horne will spin the decks at this year's  Sunshine Music Festival.

Following the success of the Gavin and Stacey Christmas special, the comedy actor will be performing in a different role at the festival - as a DJ. 

The Bad Education star's set will be based around indie rock from the 1990s and 2000s - with tracks included from bands such as Kaiser Chiefs, The Killers, Arctic Monkeys, Snow Patrol and Oasis.

Other acts announced so far include Adam Ant, Lulu, Ocean Colour Scene, Toyah and Boyzlife. 

Last year it was a roaring success - seeing names such as Bananarama, the Wurzels and Jason Donovan perform in front of daily crowds or around 8000. 

Alongside the musical acts, last year's festival also offered street food vendors, market stalls, licenced bars and a circus - with fans hopeful of a similarly exciting event this year.
