Santan Dave pulled a kid from the Glastonbury crowd to sing and he blew everyone away
Pianist, producer and rapper Santan Dave made everybody’s night at Glastonbury on Sunday, with his performance of “Thiago Silva”, the hit he had with AJ Tracey, but most of all, he made the night of a young man named Alex, who was invited onstage to fill the AJ Tracey role. Here’s how that unfolded.
Alex you absolute legend 👏

Surely the best reaction of all must be this one, from the PSG captain himself …
