White Lies were watched by members of Glasvegas as they performed in the Futures Tent at T In The Park this afternoon (12 July).

Playing five songs from their forthcoming debut album which was only completed last week, White Lies' lengthy, epic numbers nevertheless easily filled their time-slot.

Dressed in black and lit by spotlights, the four-piece quickly established high drama in the tent as 'Unfinished Business' and 'Farewell To The Fairground' showed off their Interpol and Killers-influenced sound.

Closing slow-burner 'Death' had the entire crowd clapping along as the song reached its climax.

Glasvegas are set to play on the same stage later on in the afternoon.

White Lies played:

'E.S.T.'
'Unfinished Business'
'Farewell to the Fairground'
'From the Stars'
'Death'
