She explained that her band grew suspicious when they arrived and noticed a heavy security presence that did not normally happen there. Mavies said there were convoys of police motorbikes and large cars around the farm shop venue. That was enough for them to decide not to play.<\/p>\n
It was later confirmed that Vance never planned to attend the event at all. Still, the attention brought Mavies a huge surge of new social media followers and messages of support. She said she was overwhelmed by the comments coming in from people around the globe.<\/p>\n
Mavies told an interviewer: \u201cObviously, there\u2019s an overwhelming sense of support in America\u2026 I think for a lot of American people there\u2019s a lot of uncertainty, and a lot of people are scared, and it was amazing to feel like they\u2019d been heard.\u201d<\/p>\n
She also answered critics who accused her of doing it as a stunt. She said: \u201cWe definitely didn\u2019t do that at all. If we were that clever we would have done something before now.\u201d<\/p>\n
The singer, who released her debut album The Calm & The Storm last year, admitted that some people were upset. She said: \u201cNobody\u2019s ever going to agree with everybody, and that\u2019s totally fine. It riled some people up and that\u2019s for them to decide\u2026 but I do think it\u2019s really interesting because in the grand scheme of things we just chose not to do something. We could\u2019ve done something much more extravagant\u2026 leaving is the most peaceful way of protest in some way.\u201d<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, JD Vance and his family were in the Cotswolds for their summer break away from Washington D.C. He took part in different visits and events but there was no sign he ever planned to be at the gig. Even so, the move by Mavies kept building momentum online, especially in the United States where many people said they related to her concerns.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
