Kings of Leon topped the bill on night two of BST Hyde Park 2024.
After a magical slot from SZA the day before, the stage was set for the Nashville outfit to bring their blend of indie rock to the Great Oak Stage.
First up came supporting performances from the likes of The Vaccines and Scottish singer-songwriter Paolo Nutini.
Paisley’s Paolo Nutini took to the stage at Hyde Park after 12 years; his last appearance being for BT London Live as part of the celebrations for the 2012 Olympic Games.
Showcasing the best of his four chart-topping albums - including his five-times platinum, These Streets (2006) and gold-acclaimed Last Night in the Bittersweet (2022) - Nutini showed off his extraordinary vocals to the crowd with highlights in Iron Sky, New Shoes and Shine A Light.
Celebrating their sixth studio album, Pick-up Full of Pink Carnations, The Vaccines also took to the Great Oak Stage to showcase their newer 'West Coast' sound rooted in the new record, while packing their set with favourites such as I Can’t Quit and If You Wanna.
By the time KOL were ready to take to the stage, excitement was high and the crowd were fit to burst.
After kicking things off with new Can We Please Have Fun track Ballerina Radio, Kings of Leon launched into the anthemic On Call and older tracks The Bucket and Taper Jean Girl - which they gave their tour debut.
Choosing to perform Sex On Fire relatively early on in the set meant Caleb Followill and co could treat fans to an epic, well-balanced, career-spanning set, which saw newer tracks Mustang and Splits Screen alongside the likes of Molly's Chambers and Fans.
After returning for an encore, the band chose to end their triumphant 29-track set on their iconic Use Somebody single, proving themselves to reign supreme when it comes to their field.
