Australian indie electro-pop band Confidence Man have revealed they’ll be at Glastonbury this summer.
During the YouTube premiere for their latest music video, shown below, one fan commented “crossing fingers I get to see you at Glastonbury again after discovering you in I think it was 2017”, while another added, “fingers crossed for Glasto!!”
The band responded: “We’ll be at Glasto’ with bells on”
The Brisbane-based band, which includes brother-sister duo Janet Planet and Sugar Bones, were officially confirmed as part of the Glastonbury 2021 line-up before coronavirus forced its cancellation.
Confidence Man will be opening for Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds at several of their shows this summer. A few years ago, they hit the headlines when Noel Gallagher and U2’s The Edge were sent out to deal with one of Confidence Man’s neighbours who was “banging on the walls” about the noise.
As it stands, only Billie Eilish, Diana Ross and R.A.E. have been officially confirmed by Glastonbury organisers as part of the line-up – with 2020 Emerging Talent Competiton runners-up ADIMAL and Matilda Mann also expected to appear.
However, a few other artists have self-confirmed their place, including Crowded House, Craig Charles, Papaphone and Black Dyke Band. The latter will open the Pyramid Stage on Sunday morning.
Billie Eilish will be the youngest ever Pyramid Stage headliner, at 20 years old when she performs on the Friday night. Diana Ross will take the Pyramid’s Sunday afternoon ‘Legends Slot’.
Harry Styles has also been rumoured to appear – as are Oasis, Supergrass, The Chemical Brothers, Wolf Alice and George Ezra.
The full line-up is usually revealed towards the end of May, just a few weeks before the festival, although more artists are often confirmed from February.
Glastonbury 2022 will take place from Wednesday 22nd to Sunday 26th June at Worthy Farm near Pilton, Somerset. Tickets sold out ahead of the cancelled 2020 festival, though a resale of cancelled tickets will take place before the event.
