UK Band The Great Leslie; New Music

Broadcast on: 
3 September, 2024

The Great Leslie is a UK indie/alt-rock four-piece – a group of misfits who fit together, creating something unmissable. Consisting of Ollie Trevers on Vocals and Rhythm Guitar, Ryan Lavender on Drums, Alfie Pawsey on Bass, and Freddie Miles on Lead Guitar, this gifted group, this collection of clowns, this assembly of artists is ready to take over the world at guitar point.

 

 

The Great Leslie supported James Blunt at the STIMMEN-Festival this summer, winning over the audience with their indie rock swagger and charismatic stage presence. Ollie, Ryan, Alfie and Freddie talked to The English Show about how the band formed, their most recent single «No Future», recording at Abbey Road Studios, and having 5-year plans.
