Lauren Laverne and Jack Saunders introduce highlights from sets by emerging teen superstar Billie Eilish from the Other Stage and Damon Albarn’s reunited The Good, The Bad & The Queen on the Park Stage.
Billie Eilish is currently the most talked-about teen on the planet and stunned recently with her quirky but utterly authentic set at R1BW in MIddlesbrough while her break-out hits, ‘bad guy’ and ‘bury a friend’, manage to be totally teenage and yet surprisingly multi-generational in their charm and conviction.
The Good, The Bad & The Queen features Damon Albarn’s poetic state-of-the-kingdom address on matters Brexit and beyond from their second album, Merrie Land. The indie supergroup, which includes in their number The Clash’s Paul Simonon and Afrobeat drummer Tony Allen, are back together, a decade after their 2007 self-titled debut, to charm the Park Stage with the aid of a Welsh choir and strings.
