alternative rock
Interesting and distinctive: these terms are sure to be among comments heard where Sarah Lawton plays.
Tonight's high profile appearance for US band Sleater-Kinney has moved. Its moved next door after the overwhelming response to the girl-punk rock band has left the Rocket Venue unable to cope - just short of 250 people are packed into the Cockpit for the bands first non-festival appearance in Leeds and the first gig on their Uk tour.
The Roots @ Leeds Festival 2004
After their legendary Glastonbury appearance of a few years back, Phily's finest returned to our shores to give Leeds another huge root down of live hip-hop.
The Durbervilles @ Otley Folk Festival
There are certain bands who have been busy round West Yorkshire for quite a few years, getting better at what they do rather more quickly than they get better known for doing it.
Mondo Generator @ Leeds Festival 2004
Former Queens of the Stone Age (QOTSA) bassist Nick Oliveri is second to last tonight on the final day of Leeds festival with his band Mondo Generator.

Eureka Machines @ Leeds Festival 2008
Eureka Machines charge up the whole show for the next three days by demolishing Friday's graveyard slot, tearing out classic rock songs like Saturday night was already half way through and speeding us all up to life-threatening pulse levels.
Hooks For Hands - The Carling Stage A packed out and excitable Carling Tent rips into a huge roar as unknowns Hooks For Hands take to the stage.
Local band Parva blast out any remaining hangover from last night and prove that Leeds can not only host a festival of this quality, but can also supply the bands that make it rock.
indie rock
It is a tribute to the Leeds' live music scene, its followers and local promoters, that tonight boasts four completely different bands, completely different styles and, for yet another Lock & Load event, a top gig.
Tonight's support are nearly as good as the headliners. The King Blues have got the mixture of ska, punk, and politic bashing down to a fine art, and pour so much raw energy into their performance it is hard for anyone present to stand still.

Band Profile: Waking the Witch
acoustic
"All the best female-fronted pop songs ever ('Atomic', 'Kids In America', anything involving Gwen Stefani), mashed up and sung out by an indie Alison Goldfrapp in a stripy prom dress. Better believe it, buddy" NME
Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip @ Leeds Festival 2008
Saturday kicked off at the main stage again. I was going to go see Fran Rodgers but having walked around for a day in wellies a size too small for me, I wanted to do as little walking as possible really.
Bloc Party @ Leeds Festival 2008
The last day of the festival. It threw it down on Saturday Night but when The Blackout came to the main stage, they had a little battle with the elements.
"The female REM". No matter what I read, in either local or national papers, I cannot avoid seeing the wonder that is Leeds' Bodixa being described as a female version of REM.
Kava Kava are a turbo charged rocked out and funked up live dance rock act with soulful vocals, guitars, electronica, brass, strings and beats. Played live In the USA, Europe and China and featured in a load of film and TV.
A sound that is lacking in music today, i concur's dirty layer upon layer of guitar and vocals, plus the thumping rhythms carrying the tunes along with the tricky bass lines, sound so wrong but so tight at the same time.
Manic Street Preachers @ Leeds Festival 2008
A night of torrential rain hasn't dampened anyone's spirits, although the ground is a little muddier than it has been over the previous 48 hours.
Juliette & The Licks: Got Love To Kill
Perhaps one of my biggest regrets of this year's Leeds Festival was allowing myself to get swept along with the hype and be all eager-beaverish, arriving early at the Carling Stage on the Sunday to secure a 'good spot' for young scamps, Arctic Monkeys.
Another respected underground American punk band have popped into Leeds to take advantage of the Well's grand acoustics and atmosphere.
A third sold-out Leeds date for the UK's latest finding, The Music, and this time it doesn't take a guest DJ appearance to bring in the crowds.
The Who @ Wireless Festival 2006
We are ferried at high speed towards said venue by Geldard's Coaches, allowing us time to fuel up on Heineken.
Princess Superstar @ Leeds Festival 2002
Joined today by Kool Keith, New York hip-hop royalty Princess Superstar enters the stage looking the picture of pure innocence in a long white dress and white jacket.
Rob Galloway Dubbed 'The Rebel of the Leeds Music Scene' ROB GALLOWAY describes himself as Beck meets Iggy Pop, creating an electric sound from dance beats, guitars, trip hop and punk rock
Bobby Conn @ Leeds Festival 2002
Bobby Conn is such an unusual, diminutive character that the public opinion is very much divided. There are those that don't appreciate the unconventional and criticise the offbeat dress sense and self-proclamation (that he is the antichrist) that accompany the live show.
The Pattern @ Leeds Festival 2002
Ahhh, The Pattern... one of the forerunners of the trashy, garage rock revival that has seen the music media continually cream their pants at the possibility of another band beginning with 'The'; the same scene that has spawned thousands and thousands of wannabe new bands, each one attracted by the fact that 'you don't actually have to play that well'.
Super Furry Animals @ Leeds Festival 2004
¡Forward, Russia! - Agit pop, stop start disco beating tunes, taking in XTC, Gang of Four and The Rapture moments - who knows what the fuck singer Tom is going on about, perhaps he doesn't - see this band on a bigger stage next year.
Deathcab for Cutie @ Leeds Festival 2002
The Seattle revival starts early in the Evening Session Tent, but there's not a plaid shirt in sight this time around.
Invention Of Hands: Consider Yourself Denied EP
The first thing I noticed was the high standard of the artwork & packaging, which would not look at all out of place in the racks at HMV; however, the CD itself is plain and detracts from the overall appearance.
Brutal Tinkerbell @ New Roscoe
If ever there was a lesson for new bands to learn then Future Sons Of Rome are it. 1) Your singer should never wear sunglasses unless you are playing on the main stage of a festival or have sold out a well lit arena.
The eagerly and long-awaited appearance of Eminem - exactly a year late in fact - rounding off Friday night on the main stage in Leeds, was a show of two halves - neatly mirroring those two much-debated characters.
I am told that Sugarvalve are a 'heavier Foo Fighters' but for the few songs that I hear they sound more like a bad Aerosmith.
Various Artists: Showcase: West Yorkshire SXSW 2007
'This town is in disarray' claims the opening track from this sampler, but clearly not in a bad way. As an album it may suffer from being a hotchpotch of radically different offerings from local record labels, but I'd be surprised if any unwitting industry mogul - into whose hand this disc may have been thrust at the recent SXSW festival, and who actually took the time to give it a spin - failed to diagnose a clean bill of health for the current Leeds scene.
As another long night bleeds into another bright, sunny day, bleary eyed tent dwellers emerge from their probably now a little bit on the stale side canvas abodes to see out the last day of the festival.
Foo Fighters @ Leeds Festival 2005
Sunday started like any other day. Apart from this Sunday I happened to wake up in a field with 30 odd thousand other bear soaked, bleary eyed, unwashed, desperate bladder controlling festival revellers.
Manic Street Preachers @ The Refectory
The last time the Manics visited our fair metropolis (excluding a fleeting festival appearance) was nigh-on-ten years ago at the Radio One Sound City event in 1996.
Embrace @ Glastonbury Festival
Despite the obvious talent that Leeds has on offer, only one band has really made into the national eyes in the past few years, and that band is Embrace.
Dave Sugden gets five minutes with Beat Route 62 in the Cockpit dressing room
The Leeds four piece explain why they've never felt a part of the Leeds scene, but still have the opportunity to make it big
Youthmovie Soundtrack Strategies @ Leeds Festival 2005
Quickly cast aside as quite frankly preposterous any mistaken apprehension that the hushed rumours and tales whispering their way around the Red and Yellow campsites on Saturday morning were of Maiden's amazingly iconic 'Number Of The Beast', Bloc Party's 'Pioneers', aftershow craziness, or even, god forbid you little scamps, the prospect of going to the Aftershock Bar later to more-than-hopefully (with all fingers, toes and, ahem, everything crossed) catch a glimpse of a naked girl in the jacuzzi (not that you could see anything though, I did make it my duty to do a little research).
Rage Against The Machine @ Leeds Festival 2008
Another sunny start proves the weathermen wrong again and brings out huge crowds. Standing on his (soap) box, Beans On Toast is one man with a guitar, making the world a better place through songs about sex, drugs, politics, MySpace and wellies.
¡Forward, Russia! @ Moor Music Festival 2008
The second day of Moor Festival and we are now fully equipped with the mandatory rain and mud. Squelching through mud traps and water logs would seem much less manageable if there wasn't the promise of exciting sets in each corner of the sludge-ridden field.
The Fratellis @ Leeds Festival 2006
Day three: my, doesn't time fly? The sun's out too, which is a welcoming start to the day especially for those camped out near the Main Stage for the first of two Flogging Molly appearances.
