Two more bands have been added to the line up for Brighton's Great Escape Festival in May.

Organisers revealed that the Go! Team and Mystery Jets will both be performing at the event, which is set to take place between May 15th and May 17th.

Other bands already confirmed for the festival include Vampire Weekend, Saul Williams, The Automatic, Thomas Tantrum, The Whip, We Smoke Fags, The Wombats, Late of the Pier, Crystal Castles and Friendly Fires.

Day tickets for the event are still available and cost in the region of £20.

Traditionally, the Great Escape festival is one of the best opportunities for music lovers to discover the bands that are set to become huge in the coming year.

The Times once noted: "The Great Escape is an invitation to the British music industry to take its bucket and spade to the seaside in the eternal search for the next big thing."
