Long Division Festival. Wakefield , 1st June 2019 (FESTIVAL PREVIEW)

Last year's first visit to Long Division proved hugely enjoyable, not simply due to the surprisingly alluring roster of performers but also thanks to the opportunity of witnessing quality live music inside Wakefield’s magnificent cathedral, a majestic setting for some of Long Division 2018’s leading lights including The Membranes and Billy Bragg.
