“We are Fcukers, thank you so much!” That’s just about the extent of Shanny Wise’s crowd banter throughout the New York alt-dance duo’s riotously fun 45 minute set in a bustling Woodsies tent. Glastonbury is baking, but you’ll find fewer hotter acts in the edm scene right now, the two-piece’s blend of grubby 90s house, propulsive big beat and indie sleaze quickly confirming that Shanny and Jackson Walker Lewis’ decision to sack off their previous bands and pick up some decks was inspired.
Shanny is effortlessly cool, bopping around the stage in cargo trousers, hoodie and shades, an aloof rock star pixie dressed for a rave in a Berlin warehouse. Her bandmates - Lewis on guitar and keys, plus a drummer and DJ serving beats, scratches and samples aplenty - add the requisite energy needed to bring irresistible, sticky dancefloor bangers like Homie Don’t Shake and Bon Bon to life.
