A little bit of California shines in London’s Hyde park and it’s emphasised by the presence of Gwen Stefani. The big oak stage is graced by the happy summer tunes that she is known for once again after years of absence. As a 90s front woman or as a noughties pop star, the stage presence and quality of Gwen shines through. Great tunes like, Sunday Morning and Hey Baby, Spiderwebs and the perennial Don’t Speak drive the crowd wild.
