Band Of Horses provided the perfect accompaniment to the setting sun at Glastonbury‘s John Peel Stage this evening (June 28).
With the band having already received huge cheers when sound-checking, the atmosphere in the tent was electric when they finally began properly with ‘Is There A Ghost’.
Frontman Ben Bridwell couldn’t stop grinning throughout, even exclaiming at one point: “This fucking rules! Woooo!”
The band played new song ‘Read My Mind For Free’, but ‘Is There A Ghost’ and ‘Cigarettes And Wedding Bans’ got the best reception as the tent bizarrely filled with smoke from outside.
