It’s been a pleasure to watch Benefits go from strength to strength and nice to think that a bit of that evolution happened here in Leeds. Vocalist and lyricist Kingsley Hall gives a shout-out to the Brudenell Social Club later in the evening, for giving the band their first big break with a headline gig in late 2021.
