Faye Webster Crashes Turnstile's All Points East Set for 'I Care'

Nobody told the crowd at Victoria Park to expect Faye Webster on Thursday night — and that's exactly what made it hit so hard. Turnstile were four songs deep into a ferocious West Stage set when the Atlanta singer-songwriter strolled out to join them for 'I Care', turning an already electric August 28 evening into something genuinely unforgettable.

A Surprise Worth Getting Rained On

Webster wasn't listed anywhere on Friday's official All Points East bill — her own festival slot was scheduled for the following day, August 29, as part of Tyler, the Creator's second headline night alongside Daniel Caesar, Baby Keem, Syd, Danny Brown, and others. But there she was anyway, cutting through the summer downpour to deliver one of the festival's most talked-about moments. Fan footage capturing the moment lit up social media almost instantly, with one attendee summing it up perfectly: "Faye Webster just walked out during Turnstile at All Points East. I Care in the rain. Unreal!!!"

The timing was anything but accidental. According to NME, Webster's appearance coincided with the release of Never Enough: Versions, Turnstile's sprawling reimagined companion to their acclaimed fourth album Never Enough. Her reworked take on 'I Care' features on that project — a 22-track collection that also pulls in contributions from Elton John, Hayley Williams, Blood Orange, Four Tet, A.G. Cook, Slayyyter, Alex G, Julien Baker, Floating Points, Panda Bear, Oklou, Mustafa, and Dying Fetus, among others.

Turnstile Keep Raising the Bar Live

The Webster collab wasn't the only jaw-dropping moment of the night. Turnstile rolled out their cover of The Stone Roses' 'I Wanna Be Adored' — a rendition they'd originally cut for Australian radio station Triple J's Like A Version series back in March as a tribute to the late Roses bassist Mani. The cover had only received its live debut two days prior at The Piece Hall in Halifax, making the All Points East performance just its second-ever outing in front of a crowd.

Frontman Brendan Yates leaned into the band's deep connection with the city, telling the audience, "It's a second home for us. Meg [Mills, guitarist] is from here. Thank you for always making it feel like home." The band also walked out to Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers' 'Islands In The Stream' — because of course they did.

The full setlist was a masterclass in controlled chaos: opening on 'Birds', powering through fan favorites like 'Real Thing', 'Never Enough', and 'Blackout', before closing on 'T.L.C. (Turnstile Love Connection)'. The kind of setlist that makes you wish you'd caught a flight to London.

From Grammys to Victoria Park

It's been a remarkable stretch for Turnstile. Earlier in 2026, the Baltimore hardcore band took home Best Rock Album and Best Metal Performance at the Grammy Awards — the latter for 'Birds', the same track that opened Thursday's set. NME had already awarded Never Enough five stars upon release and placed it at number eight on their best albums of 2025 list, with 'Look Out For Me' landing at number eleven on the year's best songs. Festivals like Olivia Rodrigo's Daisy Chain Fields have been championing bold cross-genre lineups this summer, and Turnstile's All Points East performance felt very much in that spirit.

What's Next for Webster and Turnstile

For Faye Webster, the surprise guest slot is a neat bit of festival magic heading into her own headlining moment the following day. Her willingness to blend into Turnstile's world — guitars cranked, pit surging — says everything about where her instincts as an artist currently sit. It's the kind of fearless genre-blurring that artists like SZA and Steve Lacy have been exploring on new material, and it looks good on her.

Turnstile, meanwhile, keep moving. The band head to Rock En Seine in France and MEO Kalorama in Lisbon before kicking off a North American tour in Seattle. The momentum right now feels unstoppable — and if you weren't in that rain-soaked field on August 28, the fan footage will have to do.
