It might take longer to say their name than it does for them to play a full set, but Robert Plant and the Sensational Space Shifters are set to perform in the Glastonbury Abbey grounds in August.
The event is called The Glastonbury Abbey Extravaganza, and takes place on Saturday 9 August, shortly followed by a firework display.
The band, who were formed by Plant in 2012, includes most of the members of Plant's old backing band Strange Sensation. Plant, of course, is best known as the lead vocalist of rock band Led Zepellin.
Michael Eavis, who founded Glastonbury Festival as well as owning the land itself, said "I am sure he will appeal to all generations, as he is one of our all-time great Rock and Roll performers."
