Jessie Reid will play a set on the acoustic stage at Glastonbury Festival on Saturday.
A musician will play Glastonbury's acoustic stage this weekend after she sent a speculative email asking the agent who books acts for it if she could perform.
She will perform on Saturday at 13:00 BST on the stage which will also host acts including Scouting for Girls and the Red Hot Chilli Peppers across the weekend. "As an independent artist, you're so used to getting rejected. It was strange to firstly have a response and secondly a positive response," Ms Reid told BBC Radio Shropshire."I've got my guitar ready and I’ve got my ticket, that's the most important bits packed."'Everyone wants to have a good time'
"I'm also playing with a band called Squeeze, I'm doing a songwriters circle with them so I've been also trying to learn their songs.
