Main support from York lads the one & only Skylights a proper lads band, ten years plus in the making & are currently now taking the UK by storm making waves everywhere, having recently performed to sell out crowds of a thousand plus over the past few weeks at Leeds Beckett Uni, Aberdeen Beech Ballroom in Scotland & again in nine weeks at Vic Hall for Mad Friday's Christmas Party.
Skylights carry the strongest Leeds following since the heyday of Bridewell Taxis strutting a style throughout the UK scene. Tracks Skylights are mostly recognised for are 'Enemies', 'YRA' & 'Rebellion'. Sound Events were overjoyed at the news they had finally pinned down such an high demand band to play their Keighley stage, given they're constantly peaking to new heights almost daily. Simply a must see!!
London based The Utopiates have got to be one of the hardest working bands pushing on through the UK music scene, so the past eighteen months have shown, selling out headline shows at the globally sought Leeds venue The Brudenell Social Club & their forthcoming Belgrave Leeds gig. The Utopiates are currently performing on The Pigeon Detectives tour dates, ensuring 2023 is giving them a foothold to keep on smashing it up & down the country.
Why they're not signed yet shocks many. With power driven vocals meeting a melodic upbeat sound, owning it's catchy diverse style complete & ready for the mainstream. 'The Sun Also Rises' album leaves oneself with an afterthought, it's only a matter of time now before The Utopiates are hitting BBC airwaves & TV, 'Love Pill' the latest single is lined up for making that happen. Catching them live is a Christmas treat not to be missed with a guaranteed Utopian delivery of euphoric awe.
