Aussies To Perform at Leeds And Reading Festivals In The UK

Staff Writer

A handful of locals are heading to two of the UK's biggest events

A few Aussie acts have been confirmed to play the UK's massive Leeds and Reading festivals later this year.

Dance duo heavyweights Knife Party, one of 2014's buzz outfits DMA's and Sydney indie-folk group Little May will perform at both events, which take place on the last weekend in August.

The Aussies will be among some pretty esteemed company, with the likes of Metallica, Kendrick Lamar, The Libertines, Mumford & Sons, Deadmau5 and Bring Me The Horizon all locked in to perform.

Last year's contingent of locals to play the events included Flume, DZ Deathrays, RÜFÜS and Panama.
