This year I had to absolute honour to perform some of my poetry at Glastonbury 2022 with the incredible women of Heard Collective - a collective with the intention to support and promote women in music.

This year we had co-founders Daisy Chute and Cerian, plus Jenny Colquitt, Sherika Sherard, and Charlotte Campbell - they’re a wonderful group of people who I absolutely adore ands am so proud to call my friends. We performed in the Green Futures Field on the Mandala and Toad Hall stages.

Here you can enjoy all my photos of the Heard performances, Glastonbury in general, and the other bands I saw (including my incredible friend Rosie Bergonzi absolutely smashing her performance with Celeste on the West Holts stage).

The Longest Johns

 Kae Tempest

Kae Tempest was one of the highlights of Glastonbury for me. They were absolutely incredible, their words were beautiful and powerful and important, and they are a true inspiration to me. I even had a little cry. During their set, they spoke about how they’d been performing at Glastonbury for around 15 years, starting on the smaller stages and working their way up to the Other Stage and it was so beautiful to see so much hard work pay off.

Since this was my first time sharing my poetry at Glastonbury and I only hope that one day I can be half as skilled as Kae. They really did inspire me to keep working even harder and creating and performing more and more and for that I am so grateful.
