The gig follows the recent release of the band's double single 'Mirage' and 'The Black Lodge', available now on all streaming platforms.

Both tracks were recorded, mixed and produced by Colin Elliott at Yellow Arch Studios in Sheffield, who has worked with a diverse portfolio of artists including Kylie Minogue, Jarvis Cocker, and Richard Hawley.

The two tracks recently featured in a three-part music video shot in a Doncaster warehouse, produced by Crosfield Content.

Polygon Rain's sound blends electronic rock with alternative psychedelia, drawing comparisons to Depeche Mode and Echo & The Bunnymen through to The Osees and King Gizzard.

Known for experimental touches such as theremin, sitar, and microtonal songwriting, the band often closes sets with crowd favourite "The Banana Song."

Frontman James Narey said: “Headlining on our home turf means a lot to us.

“Calves in the Dark won last year's Imperial Battle of the Bands and Karl Scott's got a voice that'll make the bouncer cry, so we're in good company.

“Plus, if we play the Banana Song (we will), it counts as one of your five a day."
