Video: What happened when Sleeping With Sirens played Reading?

Sleeping With Sirens vocalist Kellin Quinn stars in our latest video

TeamRock recently sat down with Sleeping With Sirens frontman Kellin Quinn on the band’s recent tour in support of their album, Madness.

The band’s last show on their summer run was on the final day of Reading Festival. And according to Quinn, the show could not have gone better despite a torrential downpour before their afternoon slot.

“We’ve been on the road for 10 weeks, so Reading was a great way to end it,” Kellin tells TeamRock. “I didn’t know it was going to be that wet. It was only when I started moving that I realised it was really slippery, so I took my shoes off and did it barefoot like Mowgli from The Jungle Book.”

That quick thinking clearly saved him from an embarrassing fall. In the video below, find out why he lost his voice before they played Leeds, their UK fans and when they’ll begin work on their fifth album…
