Glastonbury 2024 - You pick the surprise covers band
Inspired, by the other Glastonbury 2024 headliners thread, the surprise set of Glastonbury 2023 was this collaboration by late 1980s/early 90s pop star Rick Astley back by Stockport's finest act since 10cc, Blossoms covering the back catalogue of the 1980s indie pop legends The Smiths:
Rick Astley with Blossoms - There Is A Light That Never Goes Out (Glastonbury 2023)
Which got me thinking realistically if you have Singer A with Band B to cover Act C's back catalogue who would you choose to go down a storm at Glastonbury 2024?
Realistically, Singer A & Band B should be active acts; and Act C have either split up or are dead/no longer able to perform.

Off the top of my head it would be great if Act C could be Tina Turner.
Lizzo and Beyoncé?

10CC would be a good choice of Act C.

10CC would be a good choice of Act C. Jake Shears (Scissor Sisters) & The Feeling cover 10cc. That would definitely work.
I'll start off with a bit of an obvious suggestion which has already happened ....
St Vincent + Foo Fighters = Nirvana

Brandon Flowers with Catfish and the Bottlemen doing the Rolling Stones. The most exciting part of this would be seeing Catfish back together; haven't they basically imploded? |

Ah didn't really realise they were inactive. Shame, cracking tunes!
How about Yungblud & Wolf Alice doing the Sex Pistols, although I cant stand Yungblud, so I need a new frontman, Harry Styles?
