Coldplay's Glastonbury

Ahead of their upcoming Glastonbury headline appearance, Coldplay's Will Champion joins Steve Lamacq to talk about the band's love of the festival.

It's been 12 years since Coldplay made their Glastonbury debut in the New Bands Tent weeks after signing their record deal. They've since gone on to top the bill in 2002 and 2005 and will reprise their role as headliners at the Festival in just over a week's time when they'll be unveiling music from their hotly anticipated forthcoming album. So Coldplay's Will Champion joins Steve Lamacq the DJ who gave the band their first national airplay and first radio session all those years ago, to talk about what makes the festival so special to the band. As well as talking about their various appearances at the Pilton bash he'll also be choosing some of his favourite sets from the festival from the likes of the Flaming Lips, Pulp and Orbital and giving us the inside track on what to expect from their hat-trick headlining appearance.
