The ‘Ballad of Reading & Leeds


by Will McConnell

As I type, Sligo-Tyrone lot and Bandwidth Bosom Buddies A Plastic Rose are gracing the stage at the legendary Reading Festival. After (from all reports) a storming set in Leeds last night, this looks like the beginning of something..

Seems like yesterday – well, it was only February – that they tore up the Limelight to launch their eponymous EP:

And the good times roll on for Northern Ireland bands. Huw Stephens in Wales picked up on Belfast’s Not Squares and promptly plucked them for the BBC Introducing stage. Footage from Leeds is now up on the bbc site.
