With such a great range of music venues – from the Brudenell and Stylus to the Belgrave and the arena – there’s no shortage of live music to sink your teeth into and virtually every act touring will seek the chance to play in the city.
That doesn’t mean there isn’t the odd act that hasn’t swung by God’s Own County recently, which is why we asked our readers who the one performer that they’d love to see play would be.
Here’s what they said:
7. Tom Jones

8. Liam Gallagher

9. Beyonce
One of the biggest acts going at the minute, Beyonce was a firm favourite with many readers. But with her current tour having sold out stadiums all over the world (minus Leeds) it's hard to imagine when she may next come to the city. Photo: Getty Images
10. Tony Christie
Bit of a bonus one this, as we received a comment from 'Is This The Way To Amarillo?' singer Tony Chrstie's page, writing: "Me on July 9th at Leeds City Varieties .. perhaps? x" The comment went down a storm with readers, who said it was a "fantastic plug". Photo: Christian Marquardt
