Sundara Karma, meanwhile, will return to the city in May as a headliner at the Live At Leeds Festival 2019.

The acclaimed ‘Ulfilas’ Alphabet’ album is out now on Chess Club / RCA. It has already been greeted with critical acclaim from the likes of Q, DIY, Dork and Long Live Vinyl, and second single ‘Higher States’ was recently added to the Radio 1 playlist.

The Reading band’s second album continues to see them break new ground artistically, with the ambitious album covering epic stadium ready art pop anthems (‘One Last Night On This Earth’), stuttering New Wave funk (‘Little Smart Houses’), stripped back Scott Walker-esque soul searching (‘The Changeover’) and full on four on the floor dance floor bangers (‘Higher States’).

Despite being only in their early 20s, the Reading four-piece have been together for close to 10 years. A steady rise came to a head with the their 2017 debut LP ‘Youth is Only Ever Fun in Retrospect’, which saw them headline a sold-out Brixton Academy and draw one of the weekend’s biggest crowds on the Second Stage at Reading Festival, with scores of latecomers forced to listen from outside.
