Gengahr helps wake up Saturday’s festival goers

Gengahr helps wake up Saturday’s festival goers

New album ‘Where Wildness Grows’ released this year is a triumph, and so was their performance here at Leeds on the BBC Radio 1 Dance Stage.

The morning people among us were awoken by their psychedelic brand of pop that really has that summertime, friends and festivals vibe we adore. Led by the silky soft falsetto vocals of Felix Bushe, the band opened with ‘Heroine’ before progressing onto newer material such as the wonderful ‘Before Sunrise’ from the new album. Both songs possessed crashing bridges led by reverb-riddled guitar as the band seamlessly moved from quiet to loud and vice versa.

The highlights included anthemic ‘She’s a Witch’, an absolute classic with a bopping bassline that you will not be able to get out of your head. We’re predicting bigger and better slots for Gengahr in the years to come — remember the name!

Bag-Restrictions

Please help us by bringing as little as possible and remember we do not allow bags larger than A4 into the Arena. Please be patient while we carry out our security checks and searches, which take place at the campsite gates, the arena entrance and may also happen at any time at any location onsite.

Our security staff are there for your safety – please cooperate with them as they work to keep us all safe and sound. Some are covert, but most are obvious by their green or white tabard. Always go to them if you need help. The medical tent is fully staffed, open 24/7 and located in the Village.

There are security measures you will see and of course ones that you can’t. The whole site is monitored throughout by staff on the ground along with an extensive CCTV system watched round the clock by a team of monitors in a fully staffed Event Control.
