FUSE ODG has been confirmed as the headline act for Trinity May Ball 2015.

The First and Third Trinity Boat Club May Ball will be hosting FUSE ODG alongside other guests including comedian Paul Foot in the post-exam celebrations during the 149th May Ball at the college.

The 'Antenna' and 'Million Pound Girl' singer joins students on 15th June to start the May Week celebrations, signalling the end of the academic year. Selwyn May Ball will close the celebrations on 20th June. 

FUSE ODG released his debut single 'Antenna' in 2013, which peaked at number 7 on the UK Singles Chart. This was followed by 'Dangerous Love' with Sean Paul which reached number 3. He went on to win Best African Act at the 2013 and 2014 MOBO Awards.

Many students without tickets will be along the river on the night to catch a glimpse of FUSE ODG's performance and to also watch the firework displays. Many punt companies are providing deals for night-time punting along the backs during both Trinity and St. John's Balls.

Attempts were made in Michaelmas term to convince Taylor Swift to perform at the event, with an inspired video entitled 'Shake it off - Taylor at Trinity'. The campaign was covered by the national media, including the Daily Mail. 

Last year's May Ball attracted Lawson as a headline musical act and comedian Russell Kane headlined the comedy sets. 

2013 saw Basshunter and Example perform, as well as ex-Cantabs Clean Bandit, who later went on to significant chart success. Pixie Lott headlined in 2012.

Trinity May Ball dates back to 1866, when the first official First and Third Trinity Boat Club first held their event.
