2 August, 2015: Kaiser Chiefs bring the curtain down on another edition of Kendal Calling. Check out our photos from their blistering set here.
Billed against Snoop Dogg, the band offered a very different proposition to the rapper. Onlookers, however, know what to expect by now, as explosive anthems such as 'I Predict A Riot' and 'Ruby' came thick and fast in typically energetic fashion.
Perhaps buoyed by his recent appearances on The Voice, Ricky Wilson's frontman routine veers between swaggering to unpredictable, and the crowd respond accordingly, pogoing with the singer into the night. As divisive as the band may be, it's difficult to deny their credentials for closing the festival, with a war chest of hits prompting throaty singalongs and shuffling feet.
