Bob Vylan have had their US visa reportedly revoked following their controversial Glastonbury festival performance.
The punk rap duo were set to support Grandson on his tour of North America but this is now in doubt after the deputy secretary of state's announcement.
Bob Vylan, comprised of two members with similar stage names, encouraged fans from Glastonbury's West Holts stage in a chant of "death to the IDF," as part of their show of support for Palestine.
The BBC has apologised for not stopping its broadcast of the performance and has been criticised by Tory MP Chris Philp. Bob Vylan were lined up to play American shows in the autumn but this will now not happen.
The @StateDept has revoked the US visas for the members of the Bob Vylan band in light of their hateful tirade at Glastonbury, including leading the crowd in death chants. Foreigners who glorify violence and hatred are not welcome visitors to our country.— Christopher Landau (@DeputySecState) June 30, 2025
Deputy secretary of state Christopher Landau tweeted: “The (State Department) has revoked the US visas for the members of the Bob Vylan band in light of their hateful tirade at Glastonbury, including leading the crowd in death chants. Foreigners who glorify violence and hatred are not welcome visitors to our country."
As things stand, Bob Vylan are still to play at least two festivals in the UK this summer as well as a string of other dates across Europe.
