Don Broco // Live Review & Photo Set, Leeds Met

Headlining their first festival, bagging a top 40 single and playing main stage at Reading and Leeds, Don Broco’s 2013 hasn’t been half bad. The Bedford four-piece is currently storming the UK on another headline tour and, with all dates near sell-outs, it’s the perfect pre-Christmas treat before the guys take time away to work on album number two.

Last time the Bedford four-piece were in Leeds they were storming the main stage at the festival so we were excited to see what their live headline show had to offer. Click below to read our live review and to view all the photos from the show…

Vans Warped Tour // Kevin Says Tour, Live Review ITCH

Party In The Park 2013 // Live & Backstage Report

It may have been the first time that Party in the Park, (with 96.3 Radio Aire and Leeds City Council), charged for entry but, with a hefty line-up of chart topping pop acts to look forward to, no one was deterred. The rain may have put in an untimely appearance, but certainly didn’t dampen spirits; Party in the Park pulled it off once again this year with a star-studded line up. 

Est.1987 were on-hand at Temple Newsham Estate to bring you all the action from the site, both behind the scenes and out on stage. Click below to read our full live report…
