Pendulum see sales spike after Glastonbury performance

Pendulum saw their sales rocket by over 900% following their televised sunset performance.

According to Amazon, the bands sales were up by 909%, the sharpest rise for any artsist performing at Glastonbury this weekend.

Other big winners included Franz Ferdinand (470%), Passion Pit (341%), Bloc Party (295%) and Status Quo (788%).

Julian Monaghan, Head of Music Buying at Amazon.co.uk said “With vast amounts of TV, radio and press coverage, a big performance can generate huge rises in sales for the artists concerned – and this year is no different. Pendulum seem to have been growing in popularity over the past year, and this performance could mark the moment they become a truly mainstream act."
