Kevin Parker of Tame Impala to Perform DJ Set at Glastonbury Festival 2024
Tame Impala’s Kevin Parker is set to grace the stage at Glastonbury Festival 2024, performing a DJ set at Worthy Farm this coming weekend. Far Out can confirm that while Tame Impala isn’t currently touring, Parker will appear at Pilton for a DJ set at 1:00am on the Firmly Rooted Soundsystem. The official Glastonbury website lists the slot between 1:00am and 2:00am on June 29th as ‘TBA’, but the official programme confirms Parker’s appearance.
Kevin Parker’s Glastonbury History
Parker, known for hits like ‘The Less I Know The Better’ and ‘Feels Like We Only Go Backwards’, has a storied history with Glastonbury. Tame Impala headlined The Other Stage in 2019 and previously performed at the festival in 2016 and 2013. Although fans might be hoping to see Tame Impala on the Pyramid Stage, Parker’s DJ set is a rare treat for attendees.
Glastonbury 2024 Lineup
Glastonbury Festival 2024 will feature an impressive lineup, including acts such as Idles, Fontaines D.C., Justice, Jamie xx, The National, The Breeders, PJ Harvey, LCD Soundsystem, The Last Dinner Party, The Streets, and Bloc Party. The festival runs from June 26th to June 30th and will be headlined by Dua Lipa, Coldplay, and SZA.
Potential Dua Lipa Collaboration
As Parker’s set takes place just hours after Dua Lipa’s headline performance, there is speculation that he might join her as a special guest. Parker co-wrote and co-produced Dua Lipa’s third album, Radical Optimism, released earlier this year. On Instagram, Parker expressed pride in his work on the album, stating, “Don’t think I’ve ever been so proud of something I’ve worked on on release day.”
In an interview with Apple Music, Dua Lipa mentioned that her Glastonbury headline set was her “biggest dream” and hinted that Parker might make an appearance. This speculation now seems increasingly likely, adding to the excitement for festival-goers.
Conclusion
Kevin Parker’s upcoming DJ set at Glastonbury 2024 is a highly anticipated event. Fans of Tame Impala and Parker’s production work have much to look forward to, especially with the possibility of a special collaboration with Dua Lipa. Stay tuned for more updates and live coverage from Worthy Farm, as Far Out will be on the ground to provide the latest news from Glastonbury Festival 2024.
