This weekend sees Bombay Bicycle Club further continue their steady ascent to greatness, playing a huge slot on the NME/Radio One Stage at Reading ahead of their huge upcoming UK tour. We asked them if they saw headlining festivals in their future.

"Reading is by far, my favourite festival to play," said bassist Ed Nash. "We've had the best shows here consistently, so I think this will be a step above what has been an amazing summer of festivals."
Guitarist Jamie MacColl added: "I think us headlining the second stage is quite a natural slot for us, but at the same time we need another album with some more big songs on it to be able to do an hour and a half set that doesn't have any lulls, and hopefully that the majority of people know as well."
He continued: "We definitely didn't write the last album to be played live at all. If anything, it was really hard to play live."
