As befits their status as the band without which a party cannot truly start, Rudimental are back for their third Glastonbury. Having graduated from the fringes to the Pyramid Stage in just a year, the mayhem of last year’s performance is an experience Piers Agget, Amir Amor, Kesi Dryden and DJ Locksmith are clearly keen to repeat whenever possible.
This year, the band headlined the In New Music We Trust stage at Radio 1’s Big Weekend in Norwich, fresh from their most recent musical adventures with the likes of Ed Sheeran (the moody Bloodstream). And with an exemplary setlist to draw from - including the hits Waiting All Night, Right Here and Free - and an enviable little black book of collaborators to choose from - Ella Eyre to Emeli Sandé - how could they fail?
