Scottish rock heroes Biffy Clyro played a joyous set to an adoring crowd on Thursday (March 10) at Hackney Church.
An acoustic set featured tracks from 2021's The Myth of The Happily Ever After, and vocals often shared with the audience.
The closing duo of Bubbles and Many Of Horror were predictable highlights but right from the opening Instant History the band were enjoying themselves.
Speaking ahead of the event, Biffy Clyro’s Simon Neil said: ‘We’re delighted to be playing an acoustic show for Radio X in Hackney Church…a special venue for a special show.’
