14 March, 2014: Ultimate good-time band Franz Ferdinand bring the party to London with the first of two sold out shows at The Roundhouse. Check out our brilliant and exclusive photos from the gig here.
It has been ten years since the release of the self titled debut album that saw the Scottish four-piece rise to British rock stardom. A Mercury Prize, an Ivor Novello award and a number one album later and the stalwarts of the indie world arrived at a sold out Roundhouse to play the first of two shows armed with a hit packed set and unrivalled energy.
Franz Ferdinand are a British band who should be celebrated. Ten years in the game, they have mastered their craft and a show like this should be a benchmark for delivering a career-filled set in order to delight fans.
