Paolo Nutini will represent Britain at the 43rd MIDEM music event held in Cannes later this month.

The Scottish-born singer will join Jamie Cullum, Patrick Wolf and Seth Lakeman at the event, which will be staged from January 18-21.

Folk legend Donovan will be performing at the exhibition, as will Groove Armada.

The event will also see Glastonbury Festival founder Michael Eavis honoured with a Green World Award for his work for the environment.
