Bee Gees singer Barry Gibb has revealed plans for his first new solo release on 32 years. The new release will be titled In The Now and will mark his first solo effort since 1984's Now Voyager. The news comes at a busy time for Gibb, who also was recently invited to play live with Coldplay at the Glastonbury Festival.
The Sun quotes a source as telling them, "Chris [Martin, singer] was delighted to be asked to headline again but told Michael [Eavis, Glastonbury organiser] he wanted to bring some friends along, too. Barry had already been asked to perform but didn't have time to perfect a full set with his touring band . . . As soon as Chris got wind he asked Barry if he wanted to come on stage with Coldplay."
"[Barry] agreed straight away. The band are putting a Bee Gees medley together cramming in all of their classics. It's going to be really special. There are likely to be a few other surprise guests on the night too, which are still to be decided."
