Local Natives are a fantastic band. saw them at Leeds '10? and they were brilliant live. had a really early slot but were easily one of the best bands of the weekend for me. new album isn't as good as the first but i'll still try my best to check them out

Jagwa Mar are another one i'm excited to see live. haven't heard much but i love their baggy throwback sound

Vintage Trouble are very good, like what I hear from First Aid Kit too. I know he's not new but I caught the end of Maverick Sabre at Bingley and was very impressed, not what I thought it would be. Daughter are pretty good from what I've listened to as well.

Thank you all, have added The Strypes, Vintage Trouble, Local Natives and others to my list.

Half Moon Run sounds interesting:

And can I agree with above, First Aid Kit are really good live, there must be a good chance they will play elsewhere, not just The Pyramid, I hope.

Loving that Vintage Trouble track! Definitely on my list to check out, clashes permitting.

Also, thanks to whoever pointed out Jagwar Ma - seems like pretty decent stuff.

So far, others that I'd recommend (that I think may have been mentioned in this thread already):

Melody's Echo Chamber

Goat (we all seem to be loving this!)

The Child of Lov

Toro Y Moi (not been nearly enough talk about this guy!)

    • People seem to have got obsessed about 'secret sets' at all festivals this year even when there aren't any spaces other than, in EOTR's case, the usual late Folly sets that 90%+ of the time are from artists who are already playing. And if it is someone else, I'm sure it won't be a band who played the festival last year.
    • To be fair @Superscally barely mentions the running thing. Very quiet about it 😘
    • I guess we'll just have to wait until videos of the shows go up, but the fact that the standing is also greyed out still suggests to me that those sections just sold out out before the others and a blue block just be like 3 tickets left, it's still not concrete proof they never went on sale and if they were never on sale why would they not make it even, if 414 wasn't on sale then you'd think 409 wouldn't be either   
    • Selfish, but I've done the 2 days I'm there.. i'll try to do the rest through the day but might get beaten to it as it's editable....    https://clashfinder.com/s/ape2026/
    • I don’t think the festival automatically ‘need’ to have a female headliner if you have strong female headliners on the Other Stage (which I reckon will be Rosalia and Phoebe Bridgers), perhaps a female legend (praying for Annie, will take Cher), and a few female/mix gendered subs on the Pyramid (maybe London Grammar, The xx). From what I’ve seen of Sabrina, her team prioritises the pay day and I think she will be doing Wembley over Glasto weekend.   One thing I’ve noticed is a lot of the suggestions would be first time headliners and I can’t work out when the last time was that the festival had three artists top the bill that hadn’t topped it before? It seems to be something they like to do to make sure they have a ‘safe’ headliner that will land well with the masses. Plenty of names in that hat that could step back up next summer and should/could be about: Billie Eilish, Adele, Foo Fighters, The Cure, Radiohead, U2…hell, if Beyoncé is really planning to release a ‘rock n roll’ album to complete her Renaissance trilogy, Glastonbury would be a great place to ‘kick off’ that campaign for her.   And there’s always the Rihanna rumour. Her husband (I think) said this week she’s in the studio.
