The Drums Strummerville - a charitable foundation, set up in Joe Strummer's honour - have announced a few of the bands playing their annual Campfire event at Glastonbury Festival.

Situated in the 'unfair ground field' in the exact same spot where the Clash frontman used to have his fire, the campfire will be lit on Thursday and it'll be kept burning until Monday morning, during which time several artists will stop by between midnight and 3am every night to play acoustic sets.

Confirmed acts so far include: The Drums, I Blame Coco, Beans on Toast, Handshake, Sound of Rum, Ali Love, Lissie, Fionn Regan, Frank Turner, Depot and Nat Jenkins, with more to come.

No times will be announced for any performance, the best way to find out what's going on is to visit yourself.

"We’re here to provide warmth, encourage conversation, listen to amazing music and generally spread the love," they say. "Everybody’s welcome."
