We are domi met and formed while studying music at the leeds conservatoire. without leeds, without studying there, playing all the gigs we played there and having the group of associates around us as a music city, then of course we would never be a band, and we lived there for five years together and i think we played every club you can play in leeds, and i think its a really good option and i really hope leeds gets picked. thats a view shared by two of west yorkshires biggest eurovision fans. i...
