This truly is going to be a summer to remember.

The festival line-ups this year have been nothing short of exciting.

It feels as if 2023 is the year that every band, artist and singer has dusted off their guitar and started warming up for a busy summer of open-air music, chanting in the crowd with your mates and non-stop anthems.

Whilst we’ve got a few months to go before we can get ourselves down to the festival itself, it’s not going to stop anyone from building the anticipation by listening to the line-up on Spotify on repeat.

Naturally, one of Leeds’ biggest music offerings comes from Live At Leeds’ festivals held across the year.

The bi-annual festival hosted either ‘In The City’ in the autumn, or ‘In The Park’ in the summer. The summer portion is the second of its kind to go ahead this year, and it promises an action-packed day of alternative indie anthems from a range of established and up-and-coming artists alike.

So what can we expect from Live At Leeds: In The Park?

Announced this morning: DMA’s, The Hives and Crawlers

Adding to the plethora of talent already heading up Temple Newsam this summer, DMA’s and The Hives have been added to the line-up, set to bring the house (well, field) down with heavy guitar riffs and a host of non-stop hits that’ll have the crowd on their feet all night long.

The Hives’ frontman Pelle Almqvist says that the band are ‘very proud’ to be heading over to Leeds in May: “Some festival names just have a ring to them don’t they? Live At Leeds. It sounds like some upper echelon rock shit and if this year’s edition wasn’t before, now it is. The Hives are very proud and happy to join this upper echelon.

“They are coming for your money and dignity and in exchange they will deliver however long a show you will let them of life-affirming record-breaking rock ’[n]’ roll music. If you have never seen them before. imagine a rock show but to the 3rd power. Too much of everything. If you have seen them before, you know you will have to again.”

The new line-up also features Cavetown, who will no doubt effortlessly weave pop, indie and rock into a set showcasing heart-on-sleeve tales through song; whilst Crawlers will bring lyrics just as honest, and bags of character to the main stage at Live At Leeds: In The Park 2023.

Five stages: unlimited new music

Also announced this morning, festival-goers can expect to see the likes of Gengahar, Bully, Rose Gray, Opus Kink, Pillow Queens, Priestgate, Deadletter, Ellur and Afflecks Palace all making an appearance.

Spread across five stages, Live At Leeds: In The Park continues to share the limelight with newcomers into the alt music scene and champion plenty of up-and-coming talent that’ll leave revellers humming the beat of brand new songs aplenty following the day festival’s end.

The news today only adds to the stellar line-up announced by organisers at the end of last year. Expect to see Two Door Cinema Club headline the whole event with music from The Lathums, Tom Walker and Everything Everything bringing one of Leeds’ best known open-air music sites to life.

The full line-up now looks a little like this…
