Page last edited: | Leicester BandsThis listing was originally on our web site LeicesterBands.info, but that has closed down. We know that this listing is frequently used by Leicester venues and promoters to book bands. They have told us that they have booked bans from this list. We promote this listing with people who book bands both inside Leicester/shire and in key venues around the Midlands. A list of bands currently active in Leicester that play their own music.Nearly all these bands have pages on Facebook and most have a MySpace page.
