Glastonbury’s iconic Pyramid Stage will host seven acts on Saturday 29th June concluding with a surprise headline set by legendary US group The Killers.
TV viewers will be able to catch their two-hour set at 9:45 pm live on BBC Two with radio listeners able to tune in to BBC Sounds through its ‘Radio Glastonbury’ feature which offers extensive coverage of the festival.
Live coverage is also offered online via BBC iPlayer.
One of the few bands to have topped the UK Charts with every album they have produced, their set is likely to include many of their classic tracks.
Although no official set-list has been released, staples such as ‘Human’, ‘When We Were Young’ and ‘Mr Brightside’ are expected to be performed. The band are also known for regularly covering a selection of their favourite tracks such as Joy Division’s ‘Shadowplay’.
Their Glastonbury set takes place a day after their scheduled performance in Cardiff and forms part of their 2019 tour which will also take them all over North America.
Frontman Brandon Flowers told NME that new material is unlikely to feature at Glastonbury but that The Killers are now ‘a better band with more songs’ since their 2007 appearance at the festival.
Fans eager to find out whether Flowers delivers on this promise can tune in to BBC Two, BBC iPlayer and BBC Sounds on Saturday 29th at 9:45 pm.
