RICK ASTLEY has officially made his Glastonbury debut, with the Newton-le-Willows superstar performing a cover of Harry Styles and showing off his drumming skills with an AC/DC cover. 

The singer, 57, opened the Pyramid Stage on Saturday, and treated crowds to some of his chart-topping hits, as well as some new music.

Dressed in a dusky rose coloured suit, he opened the set with his hit song from the 1980s Together Forever, and later launched into a cover of Styles’ As It Was.

Taking to the drums to play AC/DC’s Highway To Hell, Astley told the audience: “When I was a kid, my first experience of being in a band was playing the drums.

“I’ve had many dreams in my life. One of my dreams has been to perform at Glastonbury – that dream has come true today.

“Maybe even possibly bigger, which I don’t know how it possibly could, is for me to play drums to the first record that I learned to play the drums to.

“I was a 15-year-old kid in my dad’s greenhouse, and I played this album to death, I broke this record learning the drums to it. Ladies and gentlemen, will you please join in, this is AC/DC.”

Other songs featured included his song Whenever You Need Somebody from 1987 as well as new song Dippin My Feet, from his upcoming ninth studio album titled Are We There Yet?, due for release in October.

Following his performance, which he ended with his 1987 hit Never Gonna Give You Up, Indie band Blossoms confirmed Astley would be joining them on the newly-named Woodsies stage at 6pm.

His performance on the Pyramid stage comes ahead of US rockers Guns N’ Roses headlining in the evening.
