ELECTRONIC music legend Gary Numan is the latest act to announce a Glastonbury Festival warm-up show in Frome.

The star, famed for hits including Cars and Are Friends Electric?, is set to appear at the Cheese & Grain on Friday, June 27, ahead of his appearance at Worthy Farm.

He follows the likes of CMAT and Wunderhorse, who have both announced pre-festival shows at the Frome venue.

“Pioneering electronic music icon Gary Numan returns to the UK to perform at Glastonbury Festival for the first time in his storied career,” a spokesperson said.

“The night before his highly anticipated set he will warm up with a special performance at Frome’s Cheese & Grain.”

They added: “Today, Numan is celebrated as a musical innovator with an enduring independent spirit. His 22nd album, Savage (Songs From A Broken World), is a dystopian concept record inspired by climate change and global collapse, featuring darker, heavier music.

“Written in part during the Trump era, it explores themes of survival, morality, and the resurgence of religion in a ruined world.

“Numan continues to manage his own career and create uncompromising music on his own terms, staying relevant and respected across generations.”

Tickets for Gary Numan at the Cheese & Grain in Frome on June 27 cost £40 in advance (plus a standard service charge), and will be available via cheeseandgrain.com/events/gary-numan from 10am tomorrow (May 16). A pre-sale took place this morning (May 15).
