Reading and Leeds - the hottest new bands to see

Photo:

With seven stages of acts to watch over the course of three days, Reading and Leeds Festival this weekend (24-26 August) boasts a pretty mammoth line-up to get your ears around.

But while the main stage will be packed out for headliners The Cure, Kasabian and Foo Fighters, there are plenty of exciting up-and-coming acts to catch on the smaller stages that could well become headliners in future. Of course, the headliners at Reading and Leeds 2012 are must-see bands, but take some time away from the main stage and you'll find a crop hot new talent that you really shouldn't miss.

As such, we've here assembled ten new acts you should catch before they make it big and their gigs gradually become a little less intimate.
