English Teacher are the first band from outside London to win the Mercury Prize since 2014.

Singer Lily Fontaine says the group owed their career to the support they'd received from local venues like the Brudenell Social Club and the Hyde Park Book Club.

"I think, if you look back over music from this country, that Yorkshire in particular has thrown out some of our most prolific songwriters.

"But there's real support for musicians in Leeds at the moment," she adds.

"Venues are willing to take on new artists and I think that's integral to the health of the scene."
