Big Roar

Hitting their peak just in time for Carlisle, this Welsh trio finally followed up years of anticipation with a full album release in January this year.

The Big Roar showcased many of band's early highlights with new material and recieved positive reviews across the board. Back for the second successive Big Weekend, they were ideal openers on this year's INMWT stage.
