Reading & Leeds Festivals

And so we head on into the land-of-the-FLUU, kicking off with a matching set of artists (Enter Shikari’s never-ever-seen-live Shikari Sound System, Frightened Rabbit, AluneGeorge, Parquet Courts, Spector, Charli XCX, Lower Than Atlantis, Sick Of It All) being added to this year’s identically-billed Reading and Leeds fests, as will each be headlined by the great Biffy Clyro, Green Day and Eminem.

Also on the agenda today, passing updates to line-ups at festivals like this year’s London-based Electric Daisy Carnival (Flux Pavilion, Jack Beats, Sub Focus and Nero); Finland’s The Knife/MBV/Kraftwerk/Nick Cave-finessed Flow (Jacco Gardner, Ravi Coltrane); Essex fest Brownstock (Mark Ronson, The Fratellis); Scottish love-in Belladrum Tartan Heart (Seasick Steve, The Pigeon Detectives); the Secret Garden Party (Serafina Steer, Little Comets); and this year’s Glastonbury, as has added an extra… oh I don’t know, ‘je ne sais quoi’, to its gargantuan artist cache via new names Jake Bugg, Seth Lakeman, Bootleg Beatles and Gypsy Queens.
