If there’s a festival that could easily be termed as the big event for alternative music in the UK, The Great Escape has to be it. Anyone who has attended the Brighton four-dayer will be familiar with that unique buzz coursing through the streets, the delegates swarming the streets with their lanyards, the bands taking pictures around every corner, spotting a favourite artist in the audience at another favourite artist’s set, having to deal with seemingly endless stage clashes because there is simply so much to see and do – the feeling, in short, that literally everyone is there, all at once.
