00:00Hi I'm Rhiann Daly and I am backstage at Glastonbury with Geoff and Joel from

00:09Walvalis. Hey Rhiann. Hi I'm great how are you? You know what I think controversially it's

00:15actually not as big as I remember it. That's my big takeaway. You're back today playing second

00:20from top on the other stage with new music. How's the new music been going down so far?

00:24New stuff always breathes life into the old stuff so everything kind of feels like a bit of a renewal

00:29especially in the early shows so it's been really great. How would you say that Blue

00:34Weekend in response to songs like Delicious Things kind of influenced this album? You know what it's

00:40like it's the hardest thing in the world to write a really concise song meaning the kind of pop

00:47structure. It's the hardest like to do like a but it's so difficult so it's a brilliant challenge.
