Fronteers, The Shimmer Band, SuperGlu on BBC Introducing Stage at Reading/Leeds 2016

Fronteers and The Shimmer Band are some of the names confirmed for the BBC Introducing Stage at Reading/Leeds 2016.

Fronteers top the bill on the Saturday at Reading and the Sunday at Leeds when The Shimmer Band are also due to perform, while Coquin Migale headline the Friday at Reading and the Saturday at Leeds and SuperGlu do Reading on the Sunday and Leeds on the Friday.

Fronteers were the subject of a Live4ever Presents… feature earlier this year when James told us all about how the band first formed.

“Me and Andy met at school through our influences of bands such as The Beatles and The Last Shadow Puppets,” he told us. “It wasn’t long after we met that we began skipping lessons to learn our favourite covers, we became driven by the idea of two vocalists.”

“Andy and Lloyd coincidentally met at college on the induction day that Lloyd wasn’t going to attend until Ellis convinced him otherwise. Lloyd then introduced Andy to Ellis and Andy introduced me to Lloyd and Ellis.”
