Bio
The Futureheads are a post-punk band which incorporates elements of a cappella into their music. They were formed in 2000 in Sunderland, England, United Kingdom or more specifically, in Barry's garage.
When you have a lot of love for an album that has played a big part in your life - either past or present tense - nothing quite beats one of these nostalgia sets.
The Futureheads might never have scaled the dizzying, festival-headlining heights of some of their mid-00s indie peers but, over the course of five albums and just under a decade, the Sunderland quartet earned a rightful place as one of their generations slightly more cult favourites.
At the request of the headliners, a fellow Sunderland four piece complete the bill, delivering daredevil harmonies and coupling homespun folk to deft balladry.
