Reading and Leeds Festival is known for its love of indie and there is no better place for Transgressive Records to celebrate their own 15th anniversary, than in the fields, at Little John’s Farm on Richfield Avenue in central Reading, and at Bramham Park, near Wetherby, between Friday the 23rd of August to Sunday the 25th of August 2019.

The celebrations at Reading will see Radio One DJ Jack Saunders battle it out over the decks with Circa Waves (DJ Set) following their live performance earlier in the day. Meanwhile, Leeds, on Saturday night, will be treated to some late night hits from Mystery Jets, Let’s Eat Grandma and Steel Banglez, while on Sunday there’s Transgressive Soundsystem, plus a Beyonce vs Drake DJ party, hosted by Bless and Superhero DJs.

Speaking about the hotly anticipated event, Transgressive co-founder, Toby L, said; “To mark our 15th birthday year, we are now able to announce our return to Reading & Leeds, the ultimate climax to the summer. We’ve pushed the boat out this year, bringing Transgressive alumni Mystery Jets and Circa Waves along for the weekend, not to mention current stars Let’s Eat Grandma.

“We’ve also gone big on the Sunday, to ensure the party doesn’t slow down – Steel Banglez is one of the biggest pop crossover names of recent times and will keep things moving right until the bitter end. And what the hell, we’re also going to throw a Beyonce versus Drake set straight afterwards, just two sets of DJs and hosts/MC’s dishing out the biggest jams from their respective catalogues. Bring on the August Bank Holiday weekend.”

We are thrilled to announce our return to @OfficialRandL this summer – our 15th Anniversary takeover will bring you live sets from @mysteryjets, @thelegofgrandma, @steelbanglez, plus DJ sets from @CircaWaves, @jackxsaunders and more…https://t.co/qUfyBNFNm1 pic.twitter.com/SpLTjJ5cEI — Transgressive (@transgressiveHQ) July 31, 2019
