Kasabian reveal V Festival warm-up in Edinburgh

Kasabian will warm-up for their V Festival headline with a gig at the Edinburgh Corn Exchange on August 20th. Tickets go on sale from this Thursday (July 23rd).

The Leicester band play Weston Park in Staffordshire on August 22nd and Hylands Park, Essex on August 23rd, leading a bill which also includes Sam Smith, Hozier, The Courteeners, Annie Mac, James Bay, Marina & The Diamonds and The Proclaimers.

Fellow headliner Calvin Harris tops The Script, Ellie Goulding, George Ezra, The Kooks, Imelda May, Gregory Porter and Ella Henderson.

We sat down with Tom Meighan and Serge Pizzorno as the early stages of their ‘48:13‘ world tour dates brought them to the US last year. “There’s no difference between any fans all over the world,” Pizzorno told us.

“People that like music like music, whether they’re from Tokyo or fucking Doncaster. If you’re making good rock & roll, people will like it. If it works in Mexico City, why won’t it work in Colorado? And it will.”
