In a new interview on That Peter Crouch Podcast, Rod Stewart confirmed that a Faces reunion with Ronnie Wood is planned for Glastonbury 2025. The legendary British singer, fresh off receiving a Lifetime Achievement Award at the AMAs on Monday (May 26), is set to perform at Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage for this year’s Legends set. “Woody, I do [speak to] a lot,” the 80-year-old Stewart revealed during the episode. “Just recently, ’cause we’re gonna do Glastonbury together.” Stewart and Wood were Faces bandmates in the late ’60s/early ’70s alongside drummer Kenney Jones, with the band splitting up when Wood joined the Rolling Stones in 1975. This news follows earlier hints of a Faces comeback, with Jones revealing the band has been recording new tracks for a potential album release. The highly anticipated Faces reunion is part of a Glastonbury lineup that features headliners The 1975, Neil Young, and Olivia Rodrigo, with the festival set to take place at Worthy Farm in Somerset, England from June 25-29. This will mark Stewart’s first return to Glasto since his previous performance in 2002. (Billboard)
