Glastonbury 2017: The Orb self-confirm

With next year’s 30th anniversary fast-approaching, British electronic duo The Orb have become the latest act to self-confirm their appearance at 2017’s Glastonbury Festival.

Speaking to Irish News last week, founding member Alex Paterson revealed the duo’s plans for the year, including a trip to Worthy Farm. “We’ve got some more European gigs in March and then we’re doing [Chill Out World] in its entirety at the Royal Albert Hall in London” he said, adding “After that I think we’ll be dropping the whole of Ultraworld once we do this special thing on the Thursday night at Glastonbury.”

Further info from eFestivals also transpires the duo will be bringing their set to Glastonbury’s ‘The Glade’, but this remains unconfirmed.

More as we hear it; in the meantime, grab a listen to one of their biggest hits, Toxygen, below:
