Featuring Bear in Heaven, Grimes, Florence and the Machine and more!

After a barnstorming Thursday night at The Great Escape, any little kitten could be forgiven for a sore head and a grizzly disposition on the Friday morning, yet with a line-up of the likes that Republic of Music and Clash put on there was to be no moping; this was a one stop shop to catch the choicest bobby dazzlers of the whole festival.
