Wolf Alice’s Pyramid Stage Glastonbury Set In Pictures

A year ago, Wolf Alice were at Glastonbury celebrating a Number Two album after the release of their debut album ‘My Love Is Cool’. Twelve months later, they stepped up from The Park to the Pyramid Stage for the first time, bringing their snarling riffs and exuberant energy with them for a set that more than hinted at even more prestigious slots in the near future.

During the set, guitarist Joff Oddie’s hand could be seen bleeding on the big screens. He played on, though, despite the blood pouring down his fingers and onto his fretboard.

The north London band ran through songs from their debut album, ‘My Love Is Cool’, which came out in the days leading up to Glastonbury 2015.

“About five years ago me and Joff applied to play Glastonbury in some emerging talent contest, and we didn’t get through and we were really sad,” Ellie said midway through. “[But] this is more than making up for it!”

“We don’t know what we’re doing on this stage,” Ellie joked ahead of ‘You’re A Germ’. Later, bassist Theo Ellis asked the crowd “Who’s got a friend here? This song is for your friend”, before launching into ‘Bros’.

Ellie ended their performance by running along the front of the barrier high-fiving and kissing fans on the front row.
