I know she toured last year but missed it, wouldn't mind seeing her. After You Tubing her 1995 appearance i think she would be damn good.

Add her to my list of:

Bjork

Radiohead

Led Zep

Stones

Florence

Pixies

I would however add that her latest album " White Chalk " is very haunting, written solely on a piano and a completely different direction. It reminds me a lot of Thom Yorkes Erasor, without any drums. This would have to be in the Acoustic tent if played next year, although it would be great. Although very very different its still packs a punch.

She has a new album? Do you mean the one that's 10 months old with John Parish?

Saw her twice this year, once with John Parish and once completely solo - without any other band members. It was amazing. It wasn't a cliched 'accoustic' set though, she was playing all the instruments one by one on stage. It was great.

She debuted a couple of new tunes at her solo show at Camp Bestival this year, sounded along the lines of White Chalk, might be new material next year

Would make a good Park Stage (solo) headliner too, though would like to see another big band performance by her sometime soon.

Emily's a fan I think, plus Polly was involved in the Glastonbury/Oxfam Haiti appeal last year. Maybe a good possibility for this year then with the new album.

pretty sure the last UK festival she played was camp bestival 09 (i was there) and her demands were literally for every other stage on the entire site to be practically silent whist she was playing......

great talent but i think unlikely for glasto. if she did it'd have to be park stage headliner, and yeah she wouldnt get a big crowd.

A Park headline slot would be excellent. Ideal stage for her IMO in terms of appeal and setting. Plus it would be one of my fave artists on one o my fave stages. win/win.

    • Annie Lennox could be the one to unite the whole forum, nobody has a bad word to say about her, even noted curmudgeon Skip 😄 I'd probably even amble along for a bit meself, and i'm also a miserable sod 
    • If the below link works - thats interesting.   While I don't particularly put much stock in that account as a source (never seen it before though, tbf), and I can pick a hole or two (see below) in what he says - the timing of it is a week before I had the Fontaines '27 stadium info (same stadium he says on there, Tottenham). The info, or part of it, matches up.   Holes I'd pick: I'd have to watch again but I THINK he says 'end of year' for Tottenham - not possible, for a number of reasons, though he's probably just got his words mixed up there. It's Summer '27, or that's what I've been told. He also says Glastonbury is/would be based on how the album does. That doesn't stack up to me, unless it was a 2028 thing. I suppose that could stack up, but still seems a bit of an odd approach. I would personally still expect it to be 2027 alongside the stadium gigs, IF they are gonna do it, though I've still not got a Scooby when the album is gonna drop, only that the tour is due for Spring (or early) next year.   Interesting, nonetheless.   https://www.instagram.com/reel/DaOB3Q9qkwW/
    • I was hoping that they would just do a tour like they were set to in 2020, rather than having Download as their UK appearance. If they are at DL, I would be surprised to see them headline. I think they sub under Deftones or SOAD 
    • well, we might know by the end of next month if they drop the lineup early again
