The Anchoress guests with Manic Street Preachers at Glastonbury

This weekend was such a dream, performing with my childhood heroes Manic Street Preachers at Glastonbury Festival in the blistering heat.

To mark the occasion, my reworking of ‘This is Yesterday’ will be released at midnight tonight across all streaming platforms.

Thank you for all of your kind words about the set. The internet can sometimes be an unkind place but I am truly overwhelmed at the positive reaction to tackling such a sacred cow, especially from a fanbase that is hugely protective of their history. I’m honoured that the band entrusted me with this precious song that means so much to so many people (me included).

The full set from the Isle of Wight festival was also broadcast on Absolute Radio, including me also duetting on ‘Little Baby Nothing’.
