Fleetwood Mac have announced their only festival performance of next year, and it's not Glastonbury.

The band will play at the Isle of Wight Festival on the final night on Sunday 14 June, and are simply 'delighted' with their decision.

A statement from the band said: “We’ve always wanted to come to the UK to play the Isle of Wight festival, and so we are delighted that in 2015 we are finally making it happen."

Adding: "So many fellow artists and friends have played at this historic event over the years, and we can’t wait to see all of our fans on the island next summer.”

If I could turn the page
In time then I'd rearrange just a day or two
Close my, close my, close my eyes
But I couldn't find a way
So I'll settle for one day to believe in you
Tell me, tell me, tell me lies

Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies
Tell me lies
Tell me, tell me lies
Oh no-no, you can't disguise
You can't disguise
No, you can't disguise
Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies

Although I'm not making plans
I hope that you'll understand there's a reason why
Close your, close your, close your eyes
No more broken hearts
We're better off apart, let's give it a try
Tell me, tell me, tell me lies

Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies
Tell me lies
Tell me, tell me lies
Oh no-no, you can't disguise
You can't disguise
No, you can't disguise
Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies

If I could turn the page
In time then I'd rearrange just a day or two
Close my, close my, close my eyes
But I couldn't find a way
So I'll settle for one day to believe in you
Tell me, tell me, tell me lies

Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies
Tell me lies
Tell me, tell me lies
Oh no-no, you can't disguise
You can't disguise
No, you can't disguise

Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies
Tell me lies
Tell me, tell me lies
Oh no-no, you can't disguise
You can't disguise
No, you can't disguise

Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies
Tell me, tell me lies

Those lucky enough to get tickets will see the band's most famous line-up, with Christine McVie back in the band to complete the classic 1970's group.

"I'm very pleased and extremely proud to have them headline next year's event," IOW festival organiser John Giddings said.

"With Christine now back in the band too, it is going to be a momentous occasion, a moment in music history," he added.
