Yak playing the Night And Day in Manchester (Gary Mather for Live4ever)
If The Raconteurs, Interpol, Johnny Marr, Parquet Courts, Jarvis Cocker and Courtney Barnett all playing The Strokes‘ day All Points East in London on May 25th wasn’t enough, some more top names have been added to the bill.
Demob Happy, Amyl & The Sniffers, Dream Wife and Our Girl are new for the event that day, as are Yak who should be full of beans after releasing the excellent Pursuit Of Momentary Happiness album last month.
