Fresh off the back of opening the Main Stage East with a phenomenal set, the post-punk quartet will play the BBC Introducing Stage after 4pm, according to sources close to one band member.

The group, whose songs include ‘The Overload’, ‘100% Endurance’ and ‘Rich’, were in fine voice as they opened the Saturday of the festival to a hot local crowd.

Singer James Smith told the “fine West Yorkshire” audience: “This is an honour and a privilege for us.”
