Mystery Jets and Maximo Park are among the new additions confirmed for the 2012 Great Escape festival.
The UK bands are joined by the likes of Willy Mason, Beth Jeans Houghton and Alabama Shakes at the Brighton festival, and follow the first round of confirmed acts which include Spector, Dry The River and We Are The Ocean.
“It’s exciting to finally play the Great Escape – it’s got a reputation for showcasing the best of independent music in a unique coastal location,” Maximo Park’s Paul Smith has said.
This year’s Great Escape is due to take place between May 10th-12th.
