The festival, taking place on Aug. 1 in London's Victoria Park, has also announced the likes of Lightspeed Champion, Hadouken! and New Young Pony Club.

Tinchy Stryder, Caspa and General Fiasco are also amongst other newbies joining the summer party.

In its fourth year, the festival gives a chance for those of a younger age the chance to attend live music shows, with those only aged between 14-18 years old allowed entry. Previous participants of the festival since its inception in 2007 have included the likes of Foals, Glasvegas and Patrick Wolf.

The new additions to the bill join already announced acts like Los Campesinos!, Unicorn Kid and Stornoway.

Tickets are on sale now.
