  • 2017-08-24T23:00:00Z1h

Huw Stephens introduces the headline performance by crowd-pleasers and festival favourites, Leicester's own rock 'n' roll kings, Kasabian.

Formed twenty years ago, the band have released six albums including their most recent LP For Crying Out Loud, which like the previous four long-players, went to number one in the album charts upon its release.

They will be taking to the main stage with their usual swagger, charm and big rousing anthems, five years since they last headlined the Berkshire event, led by their two inimitable frontmen, vocalist Tom Meighan and guitarist and vocalist Sergio Pizzorno.
