UK Eurovision act Remember Monday announce Leeds gig
After wowing crowds at Eurovision, UK act Remember Monday are set to play venues around the country including Leeds.
Lauren, Holly and Charlotte, better known as pop-country trio Remember Monday are heading out on a UK tour and they're stopping off in Leeds.
Known for their hit 'What the Hell Just Happened?', the girls have plenty of songs in their catalogue that they're ready to belt out in style just like 'Jailbreaker' and 'Hand in My Pocket'.
This UK trio has been dropping singles since 2019 and released their second ever EP in October last year titled 'Crazy Anyway'.
As well as being top tier performers, they also have some incredible song names to back it up too like 'Big Bottomed Girls' and 'what the girl's bathroom is for'.

They may have finished 19 out of 26 countries at this year's Eurovision Song Contest but they soon shook it off - Quite literally in fact as one band member Holly lost her wedding ring before retrieving it not long after.
This tour falls in line with a string of festival dates including a slot at 'Capital Summertime Ball' sharing the bill with Mariah Carey, Will Smith, Benson Boone and even fellow pop princess Tate McRae.
Remember Monday are visiting a long list of cities up and down the country including Glasgow, Brighton, Liverpool and Nottingham.

Major DJ has set cancelled as overcrowding concerns continue at Leeds Festival
Clementine Hall
After closing for the entire second day, The Warehouse stage at Leeds Festival has once again been forced to evacuate.
One of the most anticipated dance acts of the day has been cancelled due to health and safety concerns just moments before the set.
Sheffield DJ Silva Bumpa was due to take to The Warehouse stage today at 1:30pm, but the set was cancelled due to overcrowding.
It's not the first time this has happened at Leeds Festival 2026, as yesterday Omar+'s set was cancelled due to the same issue and the stage was subsequently closed for the rest of the day.
The Warehouse stage is completely new for this year, and supposedly is designed specifically for dance music...which is quite ironic.
Announcing the news to Instagram, Silva Bumpa said: "So so sorry Leeds Fest but due to over crowding my set was cancelled last min I was just behind the stage and got told right before such a massive shame."
Prospa, another prominent DJ who's set was cancelled at Reading on Friday afternoon, spoke up on the situation: "We are disappointed in The Warehouse stage closure at Reading Festival. We were told it wasn't possible to play whilst on the way. This was due to too many people outside the stage.
"We have seen this happen before at larger festivals in the UK. It's time to double the capacity of tents or put dance music on the main stage."
It comes after another dance stage, LS23, was closed mid-set last night due to a health and safety hazard when all the lights suddenly switched off and ravers were forced to evacuate.
If yesterday is anything to go by, we wouldn't be surprised if The Warehouse was closed for the rest of the day which means anticipated sets from Rossi and Mall Grab will also be cancelled.

Day two of the festival and there's some pretty disappointed ravers hanging their head as one of the biggest dance music sets of the day is cancelled.
Omar+, a rising British electronic DJ and producer, was due to play on the brand-new Warehouse stage at Reading yesterday and Leeds today.
Yesterday's set was cancelled last minute due to overcrowding, and low and behold the same has happened here in Leeds.
Announcing the sad news to his story, Omar+ said "Actually lost for words. My Leeds set has been cancelled due to overcrowding."
He then went on to show a screenshot of a text message, reading: "I've never seen something like this in my entire life where two shows back to back are cancelled due to overcrowding."
