A WELL-LOVED rock band is playing an outdoor gig in Leeds next summer.

Kasabian, headed by lead singer Serge Pizzorno, will play at Leeds Millennium Square on Friday, July 7.

The band released their critically acclaimed seventh album The Alchemist’s Euphoria this past summer.

Of the new album, which saw the Leicester four-piece achieve their sixth number 1 charting record, Serge said: “One thing about this record, I feel over the other ones, is it definitely feels like a body of work that belongs together.

"It was a beautiful moment in mastering hearing it as a piece. I think it really holds up in our seven albums….The Magnificent Seven”.

Tickets go on sale for the Sounds of the City event this Thursday at 9.30am via www.gigsandtours.com and www.ticketmaster.co.uk
