All Points East kicked off beautifully on 15th August with Gotts Street Park on the West Stage for the best of summer. The Leeds trio have 4.1M followers on Spotify with tunes from their 3 albums appearing on my playlists for years, and as the longest member of my personal lineup list for the day it seemed fitting to start there. Joined by a 4th, the humble lads stepped on stage and addressed the tiny but growing crowd before starting their first sets of instrumentals. I hate the term “vibing” considering it a lazy descriptor but it works for what Gotts Street Park were doing.
