Leeds bands announced for V and Glastonbury Festivals...
With the announcements now coming through for the summer festivals across the country, a few Leeds bands have caught the eye.
Band Profile: Beat Street International
Leeds-based professional party band for hire specializing in corporate entertainment, weddings, functions, summer balls and more.
As the daffodils open and the snow seems to have calmed down a bit, Kid iD's 'The Love is Demo' arrives and sets up the summer to come.
Deathretro hail from the Cumbrian fells, the band relocated down the A1 to Leeds last summer and have spent nine months playing and developing their blend of alternative rock smothered in dirty electronic grooves at venues, parties and festivals across Leeds and the rest of the country.
The contagious summer smile is amongst us, the festivals are selling the best flat beer money can buy, and the roads are melting beneath our feet.

Penny Broadhurst to release limited edition EP
Penny Broadhurst's limited edition "Allons-y!" EP will be released on Monday 24th September, following a successful summer of playing the Wireless, Latitude and Solfest festivals and working on new recordings.
Dandy Warhols @ Leeds Festival 2002
Two potential schools of thought here. A laidback and pretty stoner rock vibe is perfect for a sunny Summer afternoon on the Main Stage or could it be there's a pervasive sense of ennui because the Dandy Warhols have been hauling the dead gee-gee of 'Thirteen Tales From Urban Bohemia' around for just a wee bit too long.
The Flaming Lips are one of those bands who seem to have reached a comfortable plateau mid-way between commercial success and critical credibility; cool to enough to be dropped into earnest conversations over Jack and Cokes in bohemian watering holes, mainstream enough to be a regular fixture on the lucrative summer festival circuit.
The Pigeon Detectives: Emergency
Perhaps the most sought after album of the year thus far. 'Emergency', the second album from The Pigeon Detectives, released 2 days short of a full year since their debut blessed the ears of indie rockers everywhere.
Over 10,000 additional tickets made available for Leeds Festival 2005...
Following a meeting of the licensing committee of Leeds City Council today Mean Fiddler have announced that their application for an increase in the capacity of Leeds Festival 2005 has been successful.
Smashing Pumpkins @ Leeds Festival 2007
Probably the luckiest thing that could've happened this weekend did actually happen. The sun came out.
Jimmy Eat World @ The Refectory
Jimmy Eat World, if there were any justice in the world, should never be able to play Leeds. This isn't because they aren't deserving of a show in our fair city, it's simply because there's nowhere big enough for them here.
¡Forward, Russia! release "Eighteen" on 24th July
¡Forward, Russia! release a new single on Monday 24th July. Taken from their début album, "Eighteen" will be available on three physical formats, each with different B-sides, as well as on digital download format.
Highlights of 2006: 12 months in the life of the Leeds music scene
Well, what a year! As we near 2007, we've been having a look back at what was hitting the news in the Leeds music scene in 2006.
I just made it to Rio's in time to catch Cursed Diamond doing a pretty decent a cover of "Fell In Love With A Girl" for their final song.
It has been snowing all evening. From the centre of town, The Met is an uphill climb. It is icy. Falling is almost a certainty.
The Cribs to headline the Radio One / NME Stage at Leeds Festival 2008
The line up for the Leeds Festival 2008 was revealed today, although it was not much of a surprise as one of the most-rumoured line ups of recent years was finally confirmed this evening.
Leeds band Kram release their new double A-side single through GrooveStealer Records on Monday 12th March. Rachel Wilson caught up with the band.
The Cooper Temple Clause @ Cockpit
Sahara Hotnights: four girls who according to the poster at the entrance play "pop-punk ditties"... that's got to sound like The Donnas then?
Leeds Music Scene speaks to Rob and Paul from The Automatic after their set at Leeds Festival 2008
Easy Now All Stars @ Hard Rock Cafe
I hate to start anything on a negative point but... Flaming Lips! There. I got it out of my system. Not that it's a bad thing sounding like the 'lips, but it has to be a drawback when you realize that people could actually mistake your songs for unreleased 'lips tracks.
It was with some trepidation that I approached The Mixing Tin last Friday as the bassist of reasonably new boys on the scene The High Chairs, had been sporadically emailing me and seemed like such an affable and friendly chap that I was absolutely terrified that the band would be awful and I'd have to say something negative about them and crush poor Roj's hope and dreams.
It about time the best band in Leeds came back to claim the unofficial crown from the local indie kids.
