Watch Twin Atlantic bring ‘Heart and Soul’ to Glastonbury

The Scottish four-piece give their forthcoming album the introduction it deserves.

Twin Atlantic may have been a last-minute addition to the Glastonbury line-up, but you wouldn’t be able to tell. Announced that they were set to replace Chromeo on the John Peel stage just a few days before the weekender kicked off, some bands would’ve crumbled under the pressure, but not this one. They came prepared (and we’re not just referencing their nifty rain macs!)

Following up a handful of festival appearances earlier this year and a stint supporting Kings of Leon in stadiums across the UK this past month, the Scottish four-piece gave Glasto crowds a taste of their forthcoming album ‘Great Divide’, an album inspired by festival audiences.

“90% of Great Divide was written in the back of the tour bus,” admitted the band’s frontman Sam McTrusty, in a press release for the album. “Our adrenaline was through the roof because, for the first time, thousands of people had come to see us. You can’t hear 10,000 people singing a chorus back at you and not be changed by it.”

There couldn’t have been a more perfect place to ready fans for their forthcoming full-length.
