“It really looks set to be an amazing year, with some great performances all round. The Verve are a great Glastonbury band and they are finally doing the headline slot we have been waiting for for years.

“Jay-Z is coming all the way over especially, and he will undoubtedly do an incredible show, we are so honored to have one of the world’s greatest hip hop artists on the farm.

“Kings Of Leon are one of the most exciting live bands out there and they have come through the ranks at Glastonbury, from the new bands tent a few years back. We see them as part of the great heritage of Friday night headliners Radiohead, Coldplay, White Stripes.
