Local bands are wanted to perform live at Keighley's K2 festival.

The K2 team is gearing up for an event at Easter and the search is on for bands from around the region to perform live every Thursday night.

K2's Live Lounge will host live music every Thursday between 8.30pm to 11pm to showcase local bands. The club would like to hear from three or four-piece bands that perform indie and soft rock covers.

Manager Jason Hawkins said: "We would really like to encourage local bands to perform here, and we have a superb new set up especially for live acts. We expect a great crowd in our Live Lounge and you never know, we might even discover Keighley's answer to the Kaiser Chiefs."

More than £500,000 has been invested in the club, with top quality sound and lighting systems installed as well as new dance floors and a stylish cocktail bar.

Interested bands should contact Jason Hawkins at info@k2nightclub.co.uk or send a demo to K2 Nightclub, Church Street, Keighley BD21 5HS To find out more about K2 or to become a member visit k2nightclub.co.uk
