WHY GENERATION?

Metal heads came together and rejoiced as Download Festival 2022 took place over the second weekend of June, featuring headliners Kiss, Iron Maiden and Biffy Clyro, along with an array of rock legends from all around the world.

On the weekend of the Platinum Jubilee, millions across the country were seeking some sort of celebration and/or escape. I, like many others, was no different, however, for me my escape of choice was not a bunting-lined street party but Nottingham’s very own Meadowlands Festival.

Spirits were high as punters poured into Camden’s Roundhouse for Miles Kane’s headline show. 

First came a 30 minute set from newcomer Brooke Combe, her powerful vocals soaring through a cover of ‘Why’d You Only Call Me When Your High’ much to the audience’s delight. Brooke’s voice captivated the crowd, as she sang to them, “Do I impress you?”. The answer is yes, very much so, and we can’t wait to see more from this artist.
