Fee is a real star turn

02 July 2010

FEE Herbele joined the likes of Stevie Wonder and Snoop Dogg is performing at the 40th Glastonbury Festival.

The UEL anthropology graduate played in front of thousands as one of eight members of the London School of Samba.

The drum troupe came on to back up-and-coming band Bombay Bicycle Club as it performed an encore with Always Like This on the John Peel Stage.

Fee first became interested in playing Samba after studying the Anthropology of Carnival as one of her modules.

She said: "I have played to large crowds before with the London School of Samba at the Corburg International Samba Festival in Germany but nothing compares to playing the John Peel Stage at Glastonbury. We're putting samba on the Glastonbury map."

"Bombay Bicycle Club have since said they are interested in possible future collaborations, as well as coming along to our workshops and learning to play samba themselves", Fee added.
