Robbie Williams is the latest act to join the British Summer Time 2019 bill.

Talking about their excitement to have the 44-year-old on the line up, senior vice president of AEG Presents, James King, revealed just how pleased he was with the news.

The star will be joining the likes of Bob Dylan and Neil Young who are set to co-headline the event.
It wont be the first time the pair have shared a stage, as back in 1975 they both played promoter Bill Grahams S.N.A.C.K. benefit concert.

Chatting about Dylan to Time Magazine back in 2005, Young said: Ill never be Bob Dylan. Hes the master. If Id like to be anyone, its him.
Two years later his buddy repaid the compliment by telling Rolling Stone: Hes sincere and hes got a God given talent.
With that voice of his and the melodic strain that runs through absolutely everything he does. He could be at his most thrashy, but its still going to be elevated by some melody.
Dylan added: Neils the only one who does that. Theres nobody in his category.
