This year’s festival will mark Dua Lipa’s first Pyramid Stage slot as Friday’s headliner, with the singer slated to perform a month after the release of her upcoming 11-track third studio album, Radical Optimism, which drops on May 3. Veterans Coldplay will topline Saturday night in their first Glasto since 2016, making history as the first group to headline the event five times; SZA will top the roster on Sunday night.

On X, Twain gushed about the booking, calling it “another jewel in my crown. I feel so honoured and so excited about this one! Thinking about what to wear already and tell me, what should we sing together?! Let’s make history with this ultimate dream performance!!” In an accompanying video, the “That Don’t Impress Me Much” singer said, “This is a dream come true! I have been asked about Glastonbury now for years and it’s finally coming together! I’m packing my wellies [rainboots] and my raincoat, and of course, my cowboy hat. So, I’ll see you in the beautiful Somerset countryside this summer.”

Obituaries: Hit Songwriter Billy Steinberg, Streetheart Guitarist John Hannah, Festival Booker Randi Fratkin

This week we also acknowledge the passing of salsa pioneer Willie Colón.

John Hannah, a Scottish-Canadian guitarist and singer-songwriter best known as a member of Streetheart, died at his residence in Ayr, Scotland, on Feb. 20, at age 73. He had been in hospital with complications of COPD.

On their website, Streetheart reported the news and noted that "John joined Streetheart in the fall of 1978 and was with the band until the early spring of 1981. John’s contribution to the Streetheart legacy during that time was most profound. Along with being an accomplished guitarist and singer, he was also a creative force, contributing to many of the classic Streetheart songs that remain as fan favourites today. 'Hollywood,' Trouble, and 'Drugstore Dancer' all feature John’s songwriting and playing skills and it is John who played the iconic guitar solo on Streetheart’s classic remake of The Rolling Stones’ 'Under My Thumb' in 1979."
