The Great Escape have added a total of 100 new acts to their 2017 festival bill.
Rising electro-pop star The Japanese House, rapper Stefflon Don, Brighton band The Magic Gang, folk-rock singer Marika Hackman and Tottenham rapper Avelino are among the new additions.
Singer-songwriter Cosima, French rap-reggae artist Buvette, alt-grunge act Dream Wife, Danish synth-pop group Off Bloom and Belfast duo Picture This have all been added to the bill too.
Meanwhile, it has also been announced that Slaves will play a special ‘Slaves Pier Party’ show as part of The Great Escape 2017. The band will take over Brighton Palace Pier for the occasion, and as part of their entry, ticket holders will be given tokens to try the rides at the end of the pier.
