Yesterday (April 23), Fender was added to the line-up for this year’s Reading & Leeds Festival alongside Machine Gun Kelly and Wolf Alice.

It comes after organisers confirmed that the festivals will return from August 27-29, after coronavirus previously forced the cancellation of last year’s event.

As well as the aforementioned acts, fans can also expect performances from newly added acts including Sea GirlsSlowthaiDenzel Curry, Aitch, Becky Hill and Nothing But Thieves.

Meanwhile, Fender has announced that SSD Concerts will no longer be promoting any of his upcoming shows following allegations of employee mistreatment.

The claims, which were posted on workplace review website Glassdoor, were shared with screenshots on the company’s Instagram account, when it was reportedly hacked. The accusations include “underpaying” workers, “offensive” language and people being made to feel “uncomfortable” at work.

“I’ve been completely overwhelmed this week after hearing so many shocking stories from our beloved north east music scene,” Fender said on Twitter. “It takes great courage to come forward and share experiences of mistreatment in the workplace.

“There is absolutely no place for harassment. We will no longer be working with SSD but have all been working to ensure that ticket holders for upcoming Newcastle shows will bot be affected.”
