Spiritualized headlined Woods Stage’s first night for 2019’s End of The Road Festival.
The space-rock ensemble brought the stage into the night with sounds of intergalactic proportions, closing the first night of this year's fest.
Spiritualized delivered a set loaded with long-adored, psychedelic anthems and tracks from their latest record, both of which had the festival mesmerised - and with choral vocals adding to the ensemble, the band’s lovelorn ballads were all the richer. Crowds arrived in droves for Spiritualized essentials, experiencing a cinematic set featuring hits “Come Together” and “Shine A Light”.
End Of The Road continues tomorrow (30th August) with Michael Kiwanuka headlining.
