Biffy Clyro have revealed that they were nervous about how well their music would be received during last night's gig in Ibiza.

The rock trio said that they were doubtful over playing at this year's Ibiza Rocks festival, and insisted that they will not pick up any dance influences from the clubbing holiday island.

Ben Johnston said: "The idea of playing Ibiza was quite daunting until we got here. We didn't think it would work because we are a rock band but Ibiza Rocks is very well-established."

Bandmate and twin brother James added: "We had such a busy summer and have been in Australia, Japan and the States in recent months. This is a wee holiday for us and we can sit by the pool and relax.

"We take influences from a lot of places but we are fundamentally a rock band. We can change Ibiza but Ibiza cannot change us. A couple of people have remixed [our] tracks - as much at their request as at ours."

The band are also due to appear at this year's T In The Park, Leeds, Reading and Isle Of White festivals.
