Ride are a British rock band formed in Oxford in 1988, playing alternative rock and shoegaze. Signed to Creation Records, they released their debut album, Nowhere, in 1990. After reuniting in 2015, Andy Bell, Laurence "Loz" Colbert, Mark Gardener and Steve Queralt made Weather Diaries (2017) and This Is Not A Safe Place (2019), both produced by Erol Alkan. Their seventh album, Interplay, appeared in 2024, bringing the hooks and guitar intensity of the early work together with synth textures, psychedelic folk and electronic beats.

Swervedriver are also a British alternative rock group from Oxford, formed in 1989 and signed to Creation Records. Their debut studio album, Raise, was released in 1991. The Healing Power Of Horses are also on the bill.

The venue, O2 Academy Leeds, hosts concerts and shows in the city. Ride and Swervedriver both began in Oxford and were both on Creation Records, which links the two principal names on this bill and offers a route into the British guitar music of the late 1980s and early 1990s alongside the band's more recent records.
