Hot Chip have suggested that they will perform at the Glastonbury Festival this summer.

The group, who release fourth studio album One Life Stand on February 1, dropped a hint that they will be on the lineup for the festival's 40th anniversary.

"You'll potentially see us in the Somerset area of the UK around the end of June I'd imagine," lead singer Alexis Taylor told BBC Newsbeat.

"I have been to that part of the world and enjoyed being there. Nice cider there, good music and good atmosphere."

Bandmate Joe Goddard added to DS: "It's all still to be confirmed, we're very likely to do a lot of festivals. We're likely to be at Glastonbury, and at various other ones, at Bestival maybe.

"We're still really working that out, we haven't got it all confirmed, but we're going to be doing the whole festival season."

U2 were previously confirmed to headline the Pyramid Stage on the Friday night at the festival.

Tickets for Glastonbury 2010 have sold out.
