The Lathums played their first headline festival set this weekend at Liverpool Sound City.

The Wigan band - who are comprised of Alex Moore, Scott Concepcion, Johnny Cunliffe and Ryan Durrans - have had a landmark couple of years so far, after scoring a UK number one with their debut album How Beautiful Life Can Be.

Now, they've officially headlined their first festival, topping the bill on the main stage at Liverpool's Arts Club Theatre, with fans queuing around the block all day to see them.

Taking to the stage, the band kicked off their 14-song set with Fight On, before playing the likes of Foolish Parley, Say My Name and The Great Escape.

Frontman Alex Moore then treated fans to an acoustic section of the night, playing stripped-back versions of album title track How Beautiful Life Can Be and All My Life.

The Lathums ended their set on Artificial Screens, rounding off the festival’s 15th anniversary, while taking the next step in their career as one of the UK’s most talked about breakthrough bands.
