2011 was the year Leicester lads Kasabian released their fourth album and became arguably the biggest rock band in the country.

Kasabian have just debuted their massive new single ‘eez-eh’ on Radio 1, and have now made the audio available to stream. Listen to it below and let me know what you think of it in the comments at the bottom: Zane Lowe described ‘eez-eh’ as the biggest lead single Kasabian have released so far, and […]
The press cycle for Kasabian’s latest album 48:13 is starting to wind down now – after the highs of the album hitting number one and the Leicester band basically owning summer with their homecoming show and closing Glastonbury.

On top of the 16 dates that have already sold out, Kasabian will now also play the Sheffield Motorpoint Arena on Saturday 13 […]

Being a resident of Leicester all my life (save for the obligatory few years away at Uni), I can safely say that the city has never before seen a day like Saturday 21 June 2014. Not only are Kasabian the biggest band to ever come from Leicester, they are also currently one of the biggest […]
