Super Furry Animals

At the time of their performance at Glastonbury in June 1999, Super Furry Animals were riding high on the wave of success from their album 'Radiator,' released just a year earlier in 1997. This album really captured their eclectic sound—blending rock with electronic elements and even some Welsh influences—making it a defining moment in their career. 'Play It Cool,' the band's third single from 'Radiator,' exemplifies their experimental flair and strong lyricism, and you can hear that passion in their live performances. Interesting trivia? Gruff Rhys, the frontman, used to play a distinctive solo during these live sets, adding a personal touch that fans adored. The band's energetic vibe at Glastonbury perfectly reflects their artistic peak during this era, showcasing not just their music but their identity as a captivating live act.
