Musicians featured include, The Velvet Underground, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Primal Scream, Alabama 3, Billy Bragg, The Scissor Sisters, Radiohead, The Levellers, and David Bowie amongst others. When the festival takes a break in 2006, there will be no better way to enjoy this unique musical experience.

The director used video images from the undercurrents archive of defining moments in British counterculture history.

Archive manager of undercurrents Paul O’Connor said today-
‘It’s very exciting to know that hundreds of thousands of cinema goers will be enjoying the Glastonbury movie as well as viewing our images on the big screen. Our archive is unique in that it tells a radical history of the last decade, so we are not surprised that the Glastonbury moviemakers came to Swansea to look at our archive. We can’t wait to see the movie.’

Glastonbury the movie will be released at 4 charity screenings in London, Bristol, Leeds and Glasgow during April before going on General release.
