Folk legend Neil Young has pulled out of the Glastonbury music festival in 2025, alleging it has fallen under "the corporate control" of its partner BBC.
The 79-year-old musician, who was once one of the line-up of the supergroup Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, said he had been "looking forward to playing Glastonbury, one of my all-time favourite outdoor gigs".
But he added that the "BBC... wanted us to do a lot of things in a way we were not interested in" at the festival held in late June in south-west England.
"It seems Glastonbury is under corporate control," the American-Canadian singer and songwriter claimed in a statement on his website.
"We will not be playing Glastonbury on this tour, because it is a corporate turn-off, and not for me like it used to be."
