At Reading 2017, it's moments like this that Two Door Cinema Club were made for

There's no shirking Two Door Cinema Club's status as indie giants. The Irish outfit cemented their place among the greats marking their return after an extended break with a headline set on the NME / BBC Radio 1 Stage at last year's Reading & Leeds Festival. Taking to the Main Stage a year on, the band showcase just how much they're capable of - and the crowd lap up every moment. As the bouncing melodies of 'Undercover Martyn' wash over the field, fans tear their way towards the stage front, dancing all the way. Frontman Alex Trimble is a steadfast master of all he surveys, gazing out over the sea of swaying arms and shapes with a sly smile of satisfaction. It's moments like this that Two Door Cinema Club were made for, engaging the masses with an unparalleled dexterity. Smoke flares scatter through the crowd throughout, coloured mist only adding to the vibrancy the group present. As they draw their set to a close with 'What You Know', giant balloons bounce overhead, energy bubbling to eruption in an all out dance celebration of everything the field is here for. / /
