We nearly managed to squeeze every band name ever into that title, but not quite as members of The Staves joined that of Vampire Weekend, The Vaccines and First Aid Kit to help Mumford & Sons close this year’s Glastonbury Festival.
The London banjo fetishists called on whoever they could possibly find backstage to chip in with a Beatles cover of ‘With a Little Help From My Friends’. It was the last song in the band’s Pyramid Stage headlining set on Sunday night (30 June).
