New Lineup For Raggamuffin 2010

Wyclef Jean to remain in US to support Haiti fund raising and relief for his
countrymen

Andrew McManus Presents announced today that Lauryn Hill will now be
bringing her own band to perform at Raggamuffin 2010, while Wyclef Jean
remains in the US to continue his plight to help the people of Haiti.

The tragic earthquake that struck the Caribbean Island on January 12 has
been described by Wyclef as an apocalypse and the Haitian born rapper has
chosen to stay close to his homeland and continue to raise money and lend
support for the devastated Island. As a result he is postponing his trip
and performance at the Raggamuffin music Festival until 2011.

Raggamuffin will be helping to support the Haitian people with collections
at the show and donations can also be made through Wyclef's own
www.yele.org.

Lauryn Hill will now perform Raggamuffin 2010 with her full band whilst
Shaggy will now close the festival. Sly and Robbie will perform a separate
set in what will be an amazing night of hip-hop and reggae music.

Also announce today is the addition of Kiwi band House of Shem to the New
Zealand line-up. For more information on House of Shem please see
