Welsh bands at Sonisphere / Reading

We thought if you didn’t know already, we’d give you a heads up on some of the fine Welsh acts to support at Reading and Sonisphere.

Remembering back to one year at Reading where the day seemed half made up of locals (The Blackout, KIGH, Attack Attack to name drop). But as cliché or as cheesy as it may feel to go and watch a band you could easily catch at a venue down the road from you, it feels somewhat different at a festival showing you support.
