Huw Stephens introduces Scottish rock band Biffy Clyro as they take to the Main Stage to headline the Reading Festival. This will be their second Main Stage headline slot and their ninth appearance at the festival over the last 15 years, and comes a month after the release of their latest album Ellipsis, which went straight to No 1.

The Scottish trio came together in 1995 at school in Kilmarnock, when frontman Simon Neil and twin brothers, bassist James Johnston and drummer Ben Johnston, became friends and started playing music together. United by a love of underground and experimental rock, they quickly honed their unique sound and released their debut album in 2002. Fourteen years and seven albums later, Biffy Clyro have a reputation for explosive, invigorating live shows that they will undoubtedly bring once more to the Reading Festival tonight. Show less
