Following the success of his newly released album "Feathers & Stone", South African singer-songwriter Jeremy Loops is set to showcase his artistry at the world-renowned Glastonbury Festival this June.
The UK music festival is known for celebrating groundbreaking music and attracts a diverse array of talent.
Loops will be performing on the Acoustics Stage while other international artists on the line-up include Olivia Rodrigo, Gracie Abrams, The Script, Doechii and British singer Charli XCX, to name a few.
This milestone not only reinforces Loops's stature in the global music scene but signals a significant achievement for the South African artist.
"Glastonbury’s always been a dream,” said Loops.
"It’s legitimately the pinnacle festival to play. Beyond the thrill of being invited to play, I’m just buzzing to soak it all in as a fan. I can’t wait to bring 'Feathers & Stone' to that stage and share it with everyone who’s been part of this wild journey. Time to fly the South African flag high!"
His latest album has resonated with fans both locally and abroad, climbing charts and generating buzz with its blended sound that traverses genres.
The album combines soulful lyrics with elements of folk, indie and electronic influences, revealing Loops’s knack for heartfelt storytelling.
With tracks like “Loveblood", featuring Amistat, and “Coming Home", featuring Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Loops invites listeners on a journey of self-discovery and human connection through deeply personal themes.
He reflects on his artistic process, stating: "These songs are built on the raw, real stuff, live instruments, human hands and human hearts. There’s magic in the flaws, in the wobble of a string, the crack of a voice, the rhythm that’s not quite perfect. That’s where the truth lies."
His lead single, "Wolves", encapsulates the spirit of adventure and courage, presenting a melody that encourages listeners to embrace life’s uncertainties.
At its core, "Wolves" is a hymn to the wild within us, an ode to the untamed currents of life. Its haunting yet uplifting melodies invite listeners to embrace uncertainty and chase their dreams.
Describing the album as a homecoming, Loops aims to take listeners back to simpler times.
"These songs are meant to take you back to a simpler time. Kick your shoes off, feel the earth beneath your feet and let the music remind you of what it means to feel human."
As Loops prepares for what promises to be an unforgettable performance at the Glastonbury Festival, fans and music lovers alike eagerly anticipate the unfolding of this remarkable chapter in his already storied career.
