Local indie favourite Lanterns on The Lake and The Prodigy's Leeroy Thornhill have joined the line-up of new festival Leazes Live this summer.
The new additions to the bill headlined by Manchester indie-rockers James and with Sunderland favourites The Futureheads are another boost to the debut festival which announced in February it would be squeezing its way into the busy summer schedules with a line-up that refuses to be ignored.
The newcomer, part of a flurry of live music events set to make a big-scale comeback region-wide following two years of pandemic restrictions, will take over Leazes Park in Newcastle on May 1, the Sunday of the Bank Holiday weekend. Bill-toppers James, who released their latest studio album All The Colours Of You last year, are set to be a big draw, as are the Mercury-nominated Lanterns on the Lake and rave DJ Thornhill.
