Glastonbury announces full lineup for 2025 … but who are Patchwork?
Glastonbury festival has announced its full lineup of over 3,000 performances between 25 and 29 June, adding a number of new artists to the main stages along with timings and a series of tantalising secret sets. Installed in a plum spot at 6.15pm on the Pyramid stage on Saturday night, after John Fogerty and before Raye and Neil Young, is an act called Patchwork – unlikely to be the 'alternative country fusion' band from British Columbia or Tennessee's 'occult emotional hardcore' outfit of the same name. In 2023, Glastonbury hosted a similarly unheard-of band called the Churnups playing on the Pyramid stage, who ended up being Foo Fighters. Glastonbury organisers said they would not provide any further information about Patchwork. There are also 'to be announced' slots on late afternoon Friday on the Pyramid stage, Friday morning on the Woodsies stage (which has previously hosted secret sets from Kasabian and the Killers) and Saturday evening on the Park stage (Pulp and Jack White have been secret guests there in the past). Over on the Tree stage, a previously announced artist listed with the seemingly random stream of glyphs – ⣎⡇ꉺᲚ༽இ̛)ྀ◞ ༎ຶ ༽ৣৢ؞ৢ؞ؖ ꉺᲚ – is likely to be Four Tet, who curates a Spotify playlist under the same name. New artist additions to the Other stage include drum'n'bass legends Fabio & Grooverider opening on Friday, playing tracks in symphonic arrangements with the Outlook Orchestra, plus pop artists Rizzle Kicks and Good Neighbours, and singer-songwriters Nadine Shah and Louis Dunford. Glass Beams and Ca7riel & Paco Amoroso are among those added to West Holts, while Jalen Ngonda, Ichiko Aoba, Horsegirl, John Glacier and Geordie Greep join other new names on the Park stage. Most of the other big stages had already announced their full lineups – including a range of Hollywood names doing Q&As and talks at the Pilton Palais cinema, namely Margot Robbie, Paul Mescal, Andrew Garfield, Tilda Swinton, Ncuti Gatwa, Jodie Comer, Taron Egerton, Edgar Wright and Jesse Armstrong. Actor Dominic West and TV presenter Alice Roberts will dispense wisdom at the Free University of Glastonbury, while debaters at the Speakers Forum includ MPs Ellie Chowns and Clive Lewis, plus names such as Dale Vince, Asif Kapadia and Owen Jones. And there is the usual range of WTF-provoking artist names further down the bill, this year including Twat Union, Psycho-Acoustic Goat, Spambiguous Intentions, Formidable Vegetable, DJ Fart Eater doing a back-to-back set with DJ Stink Bomb, and an experience entitled Oedipussi: Choose Your Own Drag Adventure. Glastonbury organisers have also announced details for a series of events to open the festival, including a rare Wednesday night event on the Pyramid stage entitled Look to the Skies. This is the first theatre and circus show on the Pyramid since 1990, involving 'a breathtaking aerial odyssey, with high wire walkers, acrobats and incredible circus performances'. It will complement the usual opening ceremony at the Green Fields, where a 'flame of hope', made up of '15 sacred flames from around the world' will be 'honoured with a thousand voices who will unite in a powerful mantra for Peace to create a collective sense of unity, love, and purpose', concluding in a firework display. Then, on Thursday afternoon at 12.30pm, 'the Green Fields ask you to join them in the Sacred Space to create the Biggest Mantra for Peace ever seen at Glastonbury festival – to demonstrate compassion and solidarity with those living in conflict and create a moment of reflection and celebration of peace, hope and unity'. Ticketholders will now pore over the lineup to spot any big clashes, including two of the most talked-about names in global pop: Charli xcx and Doechii, playing on different stages at the same time on Saturday night. Plenty of eyes will be on the West Holts stage at 4pm on Saturday, for Kneecap. There have been calls in some quarters for the punkish Northern Ireland rap-rave trio to be pulled from the lineup, after footage emerged of them allegedly saying 'the only good Tory is a dead Tory' and 'up Hamas, up Hezbollah'. Commons leader and cabinet minister Lucy Powell said in parliament: 'I'm sure that no-one in this House would want to see them playing at Glastonbury'. The group's Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh was later charged with a terrorism offence, with Met police saying he aroused 'reasonable suspicion that he is a supporter of a proscribed organisation'. He is due in court on 18 June. The group have already been axed from Glasgow's TRNSMT festival, but an appearance at London's Wide Awake festival went ahead. The full lineup for Glastonbury 2025 is available on the festival's website. This year's app will go live later in the week.

BBC radio star teases huge US band will be performing Glastonbury Festival
BBC radio star Lauren Laverne has teased US trio Haim could be making their way to Glastonbury Festival 2025 for a secret performance. With their fourth album I Quit dropping in June after Women in Music Pt. II was released five years ago, it seems like a good time for Haim to descend on Worthy Farm. The band have a long history with the festival, having first played in 2013, before slots in 2014, 2017 and 2022. Lauren's comments have now cemented fans' suspicions that the trio – made up of sisters Alana, Danielle and Este Haim – could be heading to Glastonbury 2025 for a secret set. 'They've got summer shows coming up, one is Dreamland Summer Series in Margate on June 27,' Lauren noted on BBC6 Music yesterday, before adding: 'What else is happening that weekend? It's a long way to come to go to Margate, not that Margate isn't great…' With Glastonbury's gates opening in less than two months and the line-up confirmed, lucky ticketholders are vibrating with excitement. The Worthy Farm festival, kicking off on June 25, has dropped all its headliners with Neil Young, The 1975 and Olivia Rodrigo taking the top Pyramid Stage spots and Rod Stewart in the Sunday legend slot. Elsewhere, Doechii, Charli XCX, Biffy Clyro, Alanis Morissette, Raye, The Prodigy and Noah Kahan are all billed on various stages, with legendary bands also casually peppered in the line-up like The Libertines, The Maccabees and The Scissor Sisters. While most of the questions are answered, there's a big one remaining: who will be performing a secret set this year? Past secret set appearances include The Killers in 2017, Lady Gaga in 2009, the Foo Fighters in 2023 and Kasabian's surprise Woodsies Stage performance was let slip hours before in 2024, sparking a rush of thousands of fans to see them. Secret sets happen when a slots on the lineup are left intentionally empty, leaving fans wondering who the hell will fill them until the very last minute (except, it's almost always worked out ahead of time…). Having headlined Glastonbury four times in 1986, 1990, 1995 and 2019, The Cure are a festival favourite. Famed for hits including Just Like Heaven, Boys Don't Cry and Lovecats, the band are still going strong almost five decades since they formed in 1976. This year could easily see the rockers pull off a historic secret set, after they dropped their first new album in 16 years in November titled Songs of a Lost World. There's even more reason for an appearance as Four Tet – also known as Kieran Miles Hebden – is headlining the Woodsies stage this year. The band recently enlisted Four Tet's help for a 24-track remix collection of their new album called, Mixes Of A Lost World… It's looking promising. Mumford and Sons are hot contenders for a secret Glastonbury set this year, after they announced a major UK tour for December 2025, including a big London O2 show. Speculation also mounted when frontman Marcus Mumford acted somewhat shiftily when asked on The Chris Moyles Show whether they would be attending the festival this year. 'I went last year. It was unbelievable. I had a really deeply spiritual experience that year of being in a field with that many people. I watched The National. And I went the year before because I watched Elton. I love Glastonbury. I'm not sure we're there this year,' he said, somewhat avoiding the question. Bandmate Ben Lovett said, 'Yeah, we're in the States,' to which Marcus added: 'We're gonna play some shows that we're not allowed to tell you about. Wink wink.' He joked: 'They always roll us out when we're not allowed to announce something. It's brutal.' The folk rockers headlined Glastonbury in 2013, closing the weekend on the Sunday night. Sam Fender is having quite the year, with his People Watching tour in full swing. While Geordies will pack out St James' Park in June for the local hero's concert, many with Glastonbury tickets were also hoping to see him on the Pyramid Stage this year. While some think the 17 Going Under hitmaker may be holding out for a headline call-up from Glastonbury organiser Emily Eavis, he's got a Worthy Farm-shaped gap in his otherwise jam-packed touring schedule. A secret set is possible… Watch this space. Green Day were hotly tipped to be this year's headliner, but fans were left disappointed after the lineup confirmed their absence. But all is not lost. More Trending The American Idiot hitmakers, beloved for their throwback hits including Holiday and 21 Guns, would certainly make for an exciting secret set. While they've never played Glastonbury, the US rockers are well-placed in Europe performing at various festivals either side of the June weekend, and currently have a free Friday and Sunday evening… This article was originally published on April 25.

Get Deftones Tickets Here Now, Moreno's mix of 'Warsong' has been released, with the Deftones frontman stating, 'I chose 'Warsong' to remix as it's one of those slow-building, brooding musical pieces that have always drawn me into The Cure's music.' He added, 'My idea with this remix was to strip it back slightly of its organic instrumentation and bring in ridged, mechanical percussion and some down-pitched vocals aimed to bring forth the cold/dystopic feel of the song while maintaining the core beauty of what existed.' Remixes by Moreno ('Warchild'), Mogwai ('Endsong'), and 65daysofstatic ('All I Ever Am') only appear on the 3LP or 3CD deluxe editions of Mixes of a Lost World.

Deftones' Chino Moreno shares ‘cold, dystopic' remix of The Cure's ‘Warsong'
Deftones leader Chino Moreno has shared his own version of The Cure's 'Warsong', offering his own 'cold, dystopic' take on the track. The cover arrives as part of the remix record of The Cure's Songs of a Lost World, which arrived last year to huge acclaim. It's called Mixes of a Lost World and also features Four Tet's remix of the band's 'Alone', as well as offerings from the likes of Mogwai, Mura Masa and Paul Oakenfold. Now, Chino Moreno's new offering is the latest to arrive. While not too dissimilar from the original, it offers a more uncompromising take on the song. 'I chose 'Warsong' to remix as it's one of those slow-building, brooding musical pieces that have always drawn me into The Cure's music,' Moreno said. 'My idea with this remix was to strip it back slightly of its organic instrumentation and bring in ridged, mechanical percussion and some down-pitched vocals aimed to bring forth the cold/dystopic feel of the song while maintaining the core beauty of what existed.' Chino Moreno and Robert Smith previously joined forces when Smith shared his remix of 'Teenager' in 2020 for Deftones' White Pony remix album. In a statement, Smith previously said that the remix project began just after Christmas when he received 'a couple of unsolicited remixes' and 'really loved them.' He continued: 'The Cure has a colourful history with all kinds of dance music, and I was curious as to how the whole album would sound entirely reinterpreted by others. This curiosity resulted in a fabulous trip through all eight songs by 24 wonderful artists and remixers and is way beyond anything I could have hoped for.' Mixes of a Lost World will be released as a three-CD or vinyl LP deluxe edition, while a standard two-CD or vinyl LP edition will also be available. (A full track list for the deluxe edition is below.) The album is available to pre-order now, and the Cure will donate all of their recording royalties from the project to War Child UK — a cause that, Smith said, made Mixes 'an even more special release.'

‘Time Indefinite' by William Tyler Review: Beauty in Fragments
Musicians who build a world around a single instrument and then inhabit it will eventually try to escape it. Nashville guitarist William Tyler has been putting out records under his own name since 2010. His music has varied from one release to the next—genre-mashing folk practitioners like John Fahey and Robbie Basho are clear influences, but he also draws from atmospheric psychedelia. But regardless of style, his music has always placed the guitar squarely at the center of his work. It's his primary tool, and his lyrical, efficient approach to the six-string has defined his music so far. Over the past couple of years, that has started to change. In 2023, he announced a collaboration with electronic producer Kieran Hebden, aka Four Tet, and their early single featured syncopated percussion, explosive distortion and samples. 'Time Indefinite' (Psychic Hotline), Mr. Tyler's seventh studio LP, out now, goes even further out: It's like nothing else he's done, and it may be his best album. The easiest way to think of 'Time Indefinite' is as a collage—it's not always easy to know how the individual elements are made or what the process for assembling them might have been. It's a collection about beauty disrupted, about things breaking apart and being reassembled in new shapes. Throughout the LP, gorgeous fragments of melody are presented and developed before being dissolved in an acid bath of static. Tones are warbly and pitches are unsteady; portions of the set were recorded using technology that the digital world has passed by, including cassettes and even VHS tapes. And yet, for all its experimental underpinnings, 'Time Indefinite' is accessible, musically and especially emotionally. The most jarring moment comes on the first track, 'Cabin Six.' We hear a loop of noise that sounds like an earthquake—played loudly on a full-range system, its low-end throb might shake the books off your shelves. Even before you learn what Mr. Tyler was going through personally when putting the album together—more on that later—'Time Indefinite' seems to narrate the flow of thoughts from a troubled mind, and the first passage of 'Cabin Six' suggests that something is deeply wrong. But the track grows quieter as it progresses across its eight minutes—shimmering drones, recordings of trains rumbling through the night, tendrils of slide guitar drenched in reverb that seem to sway in the air like paper ribbons in the breeze. It's lovely stuff that hints at the expanse of moods and textures to come.
