Leeds-based label Dance To The Radio will kick off Leeds festival next month with a 'Welcome To Leeds '07' party on the Topman stage on Thursday August 23.

¡Forward, Russia!, Sky Larkin, The Wallbirds, Shut Your Eyes And You'll Burst Into Flames and Grammatics will all be attempting to get punters in the right spirit as they perform on the eve of the festival, which takes place August 24-26 at Bramham Park.

The party will also feature DJ sets from the lovely peeps at DTTR, who recently scored their biggest hit to date with The Pigeon Detectives' Wait For Me which debuted at number three in the UK album charts back in May.

In other news, the label will be releasing their fourth compilation album this September, featuring all your Yorkshire favourites, and a host of other new things that might be quite good.

No, just Leeds

It's the Unsigned Stage...

that they have at Leeds. One of the main reasons why the Leeds Festival is better than Reading - especially considering it hosted the highlight of my entire festival last year in the form of Napoleon IIIrd!
