PLUS Craig told us exactly what we can expect from his #CapitalJBB performance & it’s made us want to party with him ASAP!

He’s just been confirmed for this year’s AMAZING Jingle Bell Ball line up – so we had to find out what fans can expect from Craig David’s live shows…and having just released his new album, it’s safe to say we’re in for a treat!

#CapitalJBB 2016 Line Up: Check Out The HUGE Stars Performing At The Jingle Bell Ball!

The countdown to Christmas is on and Craig will be taking the stage at London’s O2 Arena on night one of Capital’s Jingle Bell Ball with Coca-Cola, on Saturday 3rd December – he’s assured us that it’s going to be a night to remember for all Craig David fans. 

Talking about his famed live show, Craig told Capital Breakfast’s Dave Berry, George and Lilah about exactly what sort of performance everyone can look forward to!

Talking about his latest release ‘Following My Intuition’, Craig explained, “I’d do the whole album if I could. If you can give me a long enough set I’ll take you on a journey trust me.” 

Ahead of his highly anticipated set at the ball, Craig told us about a time he was actually ‘out-balled’ (gotta love a pun) by his own manager.

He explained, “It was my birthday and I heard this sound. This ice cream van pulled up and I actually had an ice cream van bought for me for my birthday.”

“There was a guy inside with 99 flakes on lock, we had hundreds and thousands sprinkles and I was just like a kid in a candy shop. My manager did that for me so he ‘out-balled’ me.”

Well, if that’s the level of baller Craig David rolls with, just think what he’s going to unleash on the Jingle Bell Ball… we’re so excited!
