Fleetwood Mac have revealed they are set to tour again next year, igniting rumours that they will also headline the 2013 leg of Glastonbury Festival.

The band have confirmed they are set to hit the road “by the end of April or May”, which suggests a summer festival stint is on the cards.

Stevie Nicks told ABC radio:

“We go into rehearsals somewhere around the end of February. So if everything goes to plan, we should probably be out by the end of April or May, I would think.”

The news saw rumours begin to circulate around social network sites, with Glastonbury set to unveil their headline acts shortly.

The singer also hinted at new material possibly forthcoming, adding:

“Well, actually, maybe like two songs, maybe four , who knows?”

However, guitarist Lindsey Buckingham seems less certain on matters, telling Rolling Stone:

“Nothing is on the books right now. With Fleetwood Mac, there’s a lot of landmines out there politically and it’s hard to get everybody on the same page at the same time – but I think this might be one of those years where everyone will want to do the same thing.”

The tour would mark the 45th anniversary of the group’s debut record.
