Clutch
In a recent interview published, Clutch have expressed interest in playing at Glastonbury. The group are on their 9th studio album to date. With that kind of back catalogue they could easily put together 60 minutes of madness in the fields of Glastonbury.
Since 1991 these individuals have been challenging rock n’ roll’s limits, and Clutch show no signs of abandoning the unique experimentation that has defined them. Check out “Electric Worry” for proof. Neil’s voice functions as an instrument on its own, and it helps carry Clutch into a new realm.
