The 1975 are back on the festival scene this year after some time off working on material for their new album. With Love Me already dominating the indie charts, I am looking forward to seeing what else they have to offer before hitting the circuit in 2016. After many successful festival performances with their debut album, I am sure they will be welcomed back to R&L like an old friend.

It's been one crazy year for punk duo Slaves with a Mercury Prize nomination, and winning a number of other awards including Kerrang's Spirit of Punk award, they are promising an even bigger and better show than this year's performance at R&L. Expect shouting, mosh pits and tons of celebrity fans mulling around the stage.
