- By Lauren Del Fabbro

THE Kooks frontman, Luke Pritchard, has said the band’s Reading set felt like a “homecoming”.

The Brighton-formed band behind the hit songs Naive, She Moves In Her Own Way, and Junk Of The Heart (Happy) is fronted by Pritchard with Hugh Harris on guitar and Alexis Nunez on drums.

The Kooks returned to play Reading festival for the first time in seven years, and Pritchard, 40, praised the energy young festivalgoers gave the band, describing it as “amazing”.

Pritchard said: “It went bloody well. It was really good. | feel a little emotional about it really. It felt like a bit of homecoming.
