St. Vincent brought her ‘All Born Screaming’ tour to the Woodsies Stage at Glastonbury 2025 on Sunday.

The musician – real name Annie Clark – first played at the Worthy Farm festival in 2008 and this time around took to the tent formerly known as the John Peel Stage at 18:30 on Sunday evening (June 29).

Clark is currently in the middle of the UK and European leg of her ‘All Born Screaming’ tour, named after her most recent album which was released in April 2024, and songs from that record are peppered throughout the set, with the angular attack of the likes of ‘Broken Man’, ‘Flea’ and ‘Big Time Nothing’ setting the tone.

Elsewhere, ‘Fear The Future’ from ‘MASSEDUCTION’ saw Clark shredding her guitar while lying on her back, while ‘Pay Your Way In Pain’ from ‘Daddy’s Home’ saw her prowling the furthest limits of the Woodsies stage and emitting guttural primal screams.

“I would like to thank you for hanging in all the way to day four of this festival,” she told the crowd towards the end of the set. “I’m not sure what kind of trip you’re on but I want to be on it too, baby.”

She then introduced ‘New York’ as being a song about “a place where she found herself”, and is carried over to the crowd on the shoulders of a security guard, where she delivered the song while standing on the guardrail and reaching out to the front row of the crowd.

St. Vincent played: 

‘Broken Man’ 
‘Fear The Future’ 
‘Los Ageless’ 
‘Birth In Reverse’ 
‘Pay Your Way In Pain’ 
‘Flea’ 
‘Cheerleader’ 
‘Big Time Nothing’ 
‘Marrow’ 
‘New York’ 
‘Sugarboy’ 
‘All Born Screaming’ 

This year’s Glastonbury has seen outspoken politics sets from the likes of Kneecap and Amyl & The Sniffers, as well as a Bob Vylan performance that the festival itself said it was “appalled” by due to frontman Bobby Vylan leading chants of “death to the IDF”.

Elsewhere, The 1975 “delivered a reminder of their chops for tunes and showmanship” during their Friday night Pyramid headline slot, Neil Young “proved there is still power to be found in an old-school approach” the following night, while Charli XCX delivered a final victory lap for her ‘Brat’ era on the Other Stage on Saturday night.
