The Fratellis Perform 'My Friend John' at Glastonbury Festival
The Fratellis took to the iconic stage at Glastonbury in 2008, just after the release of their second album, "Here We Stand." This album, dropping a year prior, showcased the band's evolution, steering a bit from the upbeat sound of their debut "Costello Music" into a more diverse sonic territory. Interestingly, during their performance, they carried the buoyant energy that first gripped audiences with hits like "Chelsea Dagger," which was still gaining momentum. The band's knack for infectious melodies and cheeky lyrics certainly resonated with the crowd. Plus, the 2008 Glastonbury marked a pivotal moment in their career—signifying their growing stature in the indie rock scene. It was a moment of celebration and connection, bursting with the raw enthusiasm that only festivals like Glastonbury can provide.
