Live At Leeds has begun rolling out its line-up for 2018.

Peace, Circa Waves and The Horrors are at the forefront, while other confirmed acts included Spring King, whose bass player James Green says:




“We’ve been lucky enough to play Live at Leeds a few times before, and it’s never disappointed. It’s an amazing city and consistently one of our favourite festivals – we can’t wait to play again this year!”

Tom Walker is also on the bill: “This will be my third year playing Live at Leeds,” he reflects. “Last year I wasn’t sure what to expect but the venue ended up packed out and people were struggling to get in, it was such a sick show! It’s an honour to be invited back to play for 2018, can’t wait!”

The event will take over Leeds’ city centre on May 5th next year. Its director Andy Smith concludes: “After arguably our strongest year for the festival in 2017, we’re excited to announce the first of many artist names for Live at Leeds 2018.”

“The festival has always been about showcasing new music and offering emerging artists a platform to build their audience in the North and this year is no different.”
