Having beaten off the likes of The Great Escape and Liverpool Sound City to win the coveted ‘Best Metropolitan Festival’ at the UK Festival Awards, Live At Leeds has a few coups up its sleeve this time, too.

Big names announced so far include Carl Barat & The Jackals, featuring the Libertines legend with his new band, London alternative rockers Dry The River, the brainy art-pop of Dutch Uncles, ex-Supergrass main man Gaz Coombes, the incredible wordplay of BBC Sound Of shortlisted George The Poet, Leeds’ noisiest sons Eagulls and Leeds psych rockers Hookworms.
