Orbital went out in style with a dazzling show at 2004’s Glastonbury and now it looks as if it’s time for a return.
After working on various solo projects, brothers Phil Hartnoll and Paul Hartnoll have confirmed that they are reforming Orbital and will be playing at the Big Chill Festival in August 2009.
Brighton’s Phil Hartnoll said in a statement:
“It’s not an exercise in nostalgia – the time just seems right. Everything just seemed to fall into place. We’ve got 15 years of active service making song. If you boil that down to a 90-minute festival set you should get something thoroughly exciting from beginning to end. Let’s put some fun back into it.”
The Big Chill Festival is taking place 7-9 August 2009 at Eastnor Castle, UK. Tickets will be on sale soon.
