London's most anticipated dance music festival heads back to Clapham Common after a monumental edition last year (read our review), that saw the like of Carl Cox, Above & Beyond, Loco Dice, Jamie Jones and Deadmau5 headline it's 11th incarnation. This time out, SW4 tease us by releasing the first glut of the headliners for Saturday 29th August and Sunday 30th August. Watch last year's highlights below.

British dance music icons Faithless will be taking charge of the opening night. With this year being their 20th anniversary, the group will be coming out of retirement, reforming especially for the festival, to plunder their immense back catalogue of anthemic hits. Their live shows have always been spectacular, this will be no different.

Also announced is Swedish house maverick Eric Prydz, one of the rare breed that commands as much respect in the underground as he does in the mainstream.

Renowned for his immersive live sets and incredible abilities in the live setting, Eric Prydz continues to excite with his melodic, crowd pleasing sounds and innate quality as a showman of the highest order. See him in action above to see what all the fuss is about.

Other additions include Luciano, dubfire, Bakermat, Fritz Kalkbrenner, Hot Since 82, Nic Fanciulli, Secondcity, Black Coffee and an exclusive Anjunabeats label showcase.

Tickets go on sale on Friday at 9am. Once on sale, you can grab your SW4 tickets here. Head here for more info on South West Four Festival.
