A POPULAR Bradford band will return to one of the UK's biggest musical festivals for the first time in 28 years this summer.

Terrorvision, who enjoyed great success in the nineties with hits like 'Tequila', have seen their popularity "rocket" since releasing their latest album.

It has seen them land a huge support spot on Boston rock icons Extreme's Piece Hall show and now a place at Glastonbury Festival.

Around 210,000 people are expected to attend the Somerset-based festival over the four days between June 25 and 29. 

The three headlining acts will be The 1975, Neil Young, and Olivia Rodrigo with Rod Stewart performing in the traditional Sunday Legends slot.

Terrorvision, formed in Bradford back in 1988, have been confirmed in the Field of Avalon line-up.

A post on the the band's Facebook page read: "Just a little announcement this morning....for the first time in 28 years...we're back at Glasto!"

A post on the Field Of Avalon - Glastonbury Facebook page added: "With an eclectic range of music and an overriding sense of fun, there is something for all tastes and ages within the Field of Avalon.

"Our gender-balanced line-up brings together both hugely successful artists and the best new talent in one magical field."

T&A interview with Terrorvision

The band's guitarist Mark Yates spoke to the T&A back in March about the impact of 2024 album We Are Not Robots!

"It seems to have really started a whole new want for the sound of Terrorvision," he said.

"The popularity of the band seems to have rocketed.

"We are selling out places really quickly these days which is nice to see because it can easily dwindle.

He added: "We have got a busy year because of the success of the new album."

Bradford back in the day

Mark also recalled what it was like as a band on the rise in Bradford and how the industry has changed over the years.

He said: "When we were growing up in the mid to late eighties, it was a fantastic time. Everybody was in a band.

"Bradford was a very exciting scene especially the west end."

Mark said: "It was very hard back in those days getting rehearsal spaces.

"The studios were not really there. There was one in Little Germany but we couldn't afford to go in there.

"Times have changed and people have realised that bands need rehearsal spaces.

"We still rehearse in Bradford. We meet up a couple of times a week and bash through our songs, and have a laugh.

"We have always kept it local. A lot of bands seem to move to London but we never understood that."
