Easy Life drummer brandishes Buckfast bottle as singer gives anti-Tory rant at TRNSMT

English indie outfit Easy Life immediately endeared themselves to the Glasgow crowd at TRNSMT - by stepping onto the stage clutching a bottle of Buckfast and shouting “**** the Tories”. The alternative band, who mix laid back trip-hop beats with indie pop stylings, arrived on the King Tuts stage ten minutes later than billed, but the crowd were delighted to see them.

Drummer Oliver Cassidy strutted out to the front of the stage with a bottle of the caffeine-laden tonic wine and held it aloft, to screams from the crowd. Easy Life then launched into hits such as Pockets, Have A Great Day and Sunday - all of which have helped to put the five-piece on the map as an act to watch.

Murray Matravers belted out to the crowd: “TRNSMT Glasgow, how the **** are we feeling? How the **** are we feeling, we good?" Turning to his drummer, he said: “This ***** has drunk a whole bottle of Buckfast for you!”
