They’re one of the ultimate authorities in dance music, so when
Resident Advisor tell you that the
Wax:On Live Festival at
Lotherton Hall in
Leeds on
May 31st is one of the top festivals anywhere in the world this summer, there’s only one thing for it – go and get a ticket!!
With the weather pointing firmly towards the scorch factor and a line-up that includes
Primal Scream, Reverend and the Makers, Hercules and Love Affair, Green Velvet, Annie Mac, X-Press 2, Steve Lawler, Erol Alkan, Derrick May and many, many more it’s no wonder the guys at RA rate
Wax:On Live so highly.
Coming fourth in a poll of global festivals, it was one of only two UK events that polled in the top ten for May, the other being Gatecrasher Summer Sound System in the latter half of the chart at number 8. Topping the bill was Movement in Detroit, USA (1), Dissonaze in Italy (2) and French offering Nuits Sonore (3).
