We caught up with Louisa backstage, fresh from her performance at Manchester Pride 2019 and asked her why the event is so important. The singer who has had hits, 'Forever Young', and 'Tears' with Clean Bandit, explained how it's changed compared to two years ago, saying the energy is amazing.

Still dressed in her incredible stage outfit, Louisa joked it was uncomfortable to sit in, but that didn't stop her joining us backstage. Louisa explained that everyone is so happy and the energy is so different at Manchester Pride 2019, to any other event, because it's all about celebrating love and celebrating being yourself.
