You have already played at Glastonbury once before in 2023, and your set looked amazing! How has your experience last year shaped how you are feeling about playing the festival this year in 2024?
Glastonbury as a festival is such an amazing experience. It was my first time going there as a punter as-well so I really enjoyed it, and also my first b2b with Champion. He was one of my favourite bassline/funky artists growing up so was a massive milestone for me! The stage I’m playing on this year was where I saw my favourite people last year so I’m very gassed.
This summer is tipped off to be one of the wettest the UK has seen in a while – have you got a special pair of Glastonbury wellies at the ready, just in case?
I’ve got a pair of boots at the ready. Practicality is key for glasto!
You have played many festivals over the years all over the world – how does playing at Glastonbury compare to the likes of Project6, Parklife, and Boomtown?
Boomtown is always an absolute blast, likewise with project 6 and parklike. Glasto has got more variety as a festival which is great as a punter.
Your Glastonbury set comes right in the middle of your summer tour, which has a mix of both festival sets and your own shows – do you prefer playing one over the other, and if so, why?
I think festivals are harder when you’re touring, so many factors can come into play. You’ve got the opportunity to clash with other artists, it takes longer to get into, the weather can play up, and you’re pretty much working around the clock instead of just normal club hours. The payoff is so good though, if you get the perfect festival set it can be some of the best moments ever. I love club season too though, something about being in a small dark room immerses the crowd differently!
Are there any Glastonbury sets that you have watched in the past that have stuck with you or inspired you in any way?
I saw Ivy Lab at nowhere in shangri-la last year and it was one of the best sets I’ve ever seen. Their productions are so so good and so interesting. They tick all the boxes for me. I took my dad to see Flowdan aswell last year and he loved it, that was a great moment.
As a gay woman within an extremely hetero-male-dominated industry, what does playing a DJ set at Glastonbury, the biggest festival in the UK, mean to you?
It means a lot for anyone. It’s an absolute honour to play Glastonbury and I’m extremely lucky to be doing it two years in a row. I think that within this industry, the music should be what matters, not what you look like, where you come from, what your sexual orirtentaion is. The lack of female/minority representation in the past makes it harder for people to come through, because without seeing someone like yourself up there, it’s hard to believe that that could be you. Hopefully my presence gives the next generation of artists, from all walks of life, some confidence that it’s possible for anyone.
