Ben said: “We’ve got quite a long-standing relationship with the football club and when the Box Park needed someone with a relationship with the city play there, we were the guys the club put forward.

"Back in 2010, we did the Nottingham World Cup song Raise Your Voice and we’ll play all the Forest songs that every knows and will get everyone partying.
