After a slightly nightmarish journey the Youth Music crew and Build A Band UK winners finally made it onsite yesterday and pitched our base outside the Left Field Stage!
The band picked up their VIP backstage passes and pitched their tents in the posh crew camping area! Abi, Archy, Alex, Ben and JJ spent their first day together in the rehearsal studio on Wednesday putting together a brand new song from scratch. JJ told us, "It's a real mix of genres... their some funk, some reggae - all kinds of stuff."
There was even some early discussion about a band name, "We're thinking about Fifth Element because there are five of us and we all have very different elements to add," said Abi.
After rehearsals the band's tour driver brought them back to site to be interviewed by the Left Field media and they met up for an artist chat with Glastonbury performers The Light Years.
Look out for video footage of the band's progress and Glasto experience coming soon...
