reading-leeds-festival2THE READING AND LEEDS FESTIVAL ARE PROUD TO ANNOUNCE THE FOLLOWING ADDITION TO THIS YEAR’S LINE-UP

ON THE NME / RADIO ONE STAGE

Friday 28th August at The Reading Festival / Sunday 30th August at The Leeds Festival

With a critically heralded return in the shape of new album ‘Everything is New’ JACK PEÑATE comes to the twin sites in fine form. Having wowed the UK with hit single ‘Torn on the Platform’ and top ten album ‘Matinee’ in 2007 the London born singer has continued to prove himself one of the UK’s brightest hopes with that new album, the NME noting, “Jack Peñate has made a record that’s light on its feet, [and] has glamour bordering on sex appeal”. Following rapturous reviews for his recent UK tour expect a full house at both sites for these shows from one of the UK’s brightest hopes.
