    December means Christmas, and Christmas means Christmas radio shows in the concert world as Express Live! hosted WNCI 97.9’s annual family friendly pop-spectacular, Dave and Jimmy’s Jingle Jam.

    This years instalment featured a collection of the new and the old, finishing up with pop-rock stalwart headliners, Fall Out Boy who did what they do best and made the mostly underage crowd go a little bit giddy as singer/guitarist Patrick Stump and company pulled hit and hit from their 13ish year back-catalogue of sing-along radio tunes.

    Ohio native and X Factor contestant Spencer Sutherland opened the show while many were still trying to get into the building, before the energetic MAX got the Christmas party started.

    Freshly birthed and squeaky clean looking boy-band Why Don’t We next took the stage before the UK’s most streamed woman of 2017 on Spotify, Dua Lipa brought her self described “dark pop” to a sparse and dreamy looking Express Live! stage.
