Brighton festival The Great Escape has added 100 acts to its line up, joining the likes of Rag'n'Bone Man, Cabbage, Ray BLK and more at the South Coast event. 

Amongst the second wave announcement are premier punk two piece Slaves, who will perform an exclusive spotlight show entitled 'Slaves Pier Party' where they will take over Brighton Palace Pier and fairground for a typically high octane performance. Check out the brand new video for 'I'd Rather See Your Star Explode' below.

Also announced is the suitably named Stefflon Don, who is currently making waves in the UK rap scene with her fierce brand of dancehall inspired hip hop.

Also bringing fire bars is Avelino, the Tottenham rapper who has earned plaudits from DJ Semtex and Stormzy, while Homeshake, Pumarosa, The Japanese House, The Magic Gang and Native Dancer are just some of the notable acts added to the Great Escape 2017 line up. Grab your tickets below.
