Artist’s studios are fascinating places; “once inside there is a kind of magic that happens and you’re suddenly in the middle of a very rich and, I feel, privileged experience. Every studio is different because every artist is different. The set up, interior and approach to individual spaces is never the same.” Karen Watson (East Street Arts, Co-Founder & Artistic Director)

East Street Arts’ members are opening their doors and you are invited. Take some time and explore some of the most creative environments in Leeds; painters, sculptors, designers, filmmakers, performers, ceramicists, illustrators, writers, tailors, photographers and digital artists are all welcoming you behind the scenes.

So take the opportunity to meet the artists in their place of work, start a conversation, maybe buy some of their work and start your own art collection or build upon the one you may already have!

From around 2005 – 2010 Leeds had one of the most vibrant DIY hardcore/metal scenes in the UK with Humanfly, Chickenhawk, Whores Whores Whores, Narcosis, Year of the Man, The Plight, Red Stars Parade, Bilge Pump, Gentleman’s Pistols and Send More Paramedics playing week in, week out alongside regular visitors to the city such as Bossk, Taint and Manatees.

While the majority of these acts broke-up years ago, many have gone on to form newer bands creating a whole host of exciting new heavy music within Yorkshire. One of those is False Flags, formed out of the ashes of Red Stars Parade, Whores x 3 and Year of the Man they are set to self-release their new mini-album ‘Hexmachine’ on 20th November.
