Craig David wants to headline Glastonbury.
The 44-year-old singer last performed on the famous Pyramid Stage at the Worthy Farm festival in 2017 and would jump at the chance to play Glastonbury again, when it returns in 2027.
He told The Sun newspaper’s Bizarre column: “I would love to go back. You know what Glastonbury means to any artist.
“When I performed on the Pyramid Stage, it was one of the most iconic moments for me.
"I could see that there were so many people from so many different walks of life who’d come to see a myriad of different artists.
“I’d never seen so many people and I thought that is what it is normally like.
“People were like, ‘No, Craig, the crowd went over the bank at the back and that is huge.’ It was just amazing.”
Meanwhile, Craig is preparing for the release of his upcoming ninth album Commitment, 25 years after he dropped his first record Born To Do It.
He said: “Creating Commitment was in a lot of respects very similar to Born To Do It.
“It didn’t feel like I was under this pressure to deliver. It felt really relaxed and cathartic.
“I was listening to the music I grew up listening to, like when I made the first album.
"It got me into a vibe and then I’d go in the studio until 4am.
“I was just loving it, having so much fun.
“You start to get back to why I originally made music. It’s crazy when it’s the ninth album in.
“To have a career spanning 25 years, I’m just really grateful, it’s a crazy journey we’re on.”
