THE ESCAPADES are building on the success of their recent Soundwaves win with a prestigious support gig in Leeds next month.

The Silsden band will play support for John McCullagh And The Escorts on March 26 at the city’s Oporto.

The gig is organised by GEHO who arranged the Escapades’ support slot with Fatherson late last year.

The Escapades beat hundreds of bands from around the region to win the Soundwaves last month in Leeds, receiving a host of prizes and it further in their career.

This month the band played on BBC Radio Leeds and returned to the Venue in Colne as part of an all-day charity gig entitled Fight Night Stand Up To Cancer.
