Self Confirmed

[NickisGinger]

When did Gorgon City self confirm?

[CaledonianGonzo]

47 Soul sound awesome, assume they will be on west holts early on

There was a wee smattering of Middle Eatsern music on at the Glade as well last year, so maybe there.

Also maybe Gully Outer-National or one of the Greenfields places.

47SOUL who take "the street music of Syria, Jordan, Lebanon and the Palestinian territories .... into the future with analogue synthesizers and electronic beats, and hyped verses from the four singers."

That sounds potentially brilliant

At Womad in June?

Charlton Park July

SOLD!

Hehehe, I saw that description and just knew it!

Sounds like a hoot. Lineup filling up nicely now. And if we get half of the heavily rumoured acts and acts touring around the time we're in for a cracking festival of music.

The headliner thread genuinely makes me sad. Especially considering theres only one more headliner to be announced.

Thank you, I love world music and this is a new find for me, along with Songhoy Blues the presumed WH line up is looking good already.

Some of my favourite music memories of the festival have been world music acts, in my best ever list over the years Balkan Beat Box, and Ilham Al Madfai (From Iraq) on WH, and Oi Va Voi (With KT Tunstall) at the Avalon. Sweet!

I'm sure i saw Gretchen in 2013 in a sparsly filled Accoustic Tent. She was great,Just what was needed for this tired and battered body on the Sunday afternoon

They're on the official line up so I guess so. It says "booked for UK festivals Womad and Glastonbury in June 2015". So could read that 2 ways.

I was at that. Drinking whisky down the back. Pretty empty alright.

Christy Moore. Friday night Acoustic headliner?

[youwhatmate]

Talked to a guitarist from Wolf Alice yesterday after their Rescue Rooms gig about playing Glastonbury and he said "I don't know - we can't say anything yet." I'm taking that as "yes, but we can't confirm it yet" because if they weren't playing, surely he'd just say no?

There's an extremely convenient gap in their touring schedule too.

My logic is undeniable.

That's good news, was annoyed to miss them last year.

[dentalplan]

Yeah there's no way Wolf Alice aren't playing anyway so your logic will be right.

[Funkyfairy!]

Jim Fox, who announces the acts (and runs?) the JP stage just posted a video of Leon Bridges - Coming Home on Glasto Chat FB page .... a clue maybe or clutching at random straws
