Emily Eavis confirms Dolly Parton for Glastonbury

Following this morning’s Blondie announcement, Glastonbury Festival organiser Emily Eavis has confirmed Dolly Parton will appear at this summer’s iconic event.

“It’s something we’ve been wanting to happen for a long time, and she finally said yes!” Eavis told BBC 6 Music earlier this morning. Meanwhile Parton herself has tweeted confirmation, saying “I’m incredibly excited to FINALLY announce that the #BlueSmokeWorldTour is coming to @GlastoFest on June 29th! 😉 Stay tuned for more info…”

Parton’s inclusion into the line-up means she will join Arcade Fire and Blondie on the main stage, whilst other confirmed acts include Gorgon City, Lily Allen and Stanton Warriors.
