Crystal Castles, Young Fathers, JD Samson and Mykki Blanco are among the first acts to be announced for M.I.A's Meltdown Festival.
The rapper will also perform herself, while Afrikan Boy, Dexta Daps, I Wayne, MHD, Mr Eazi, Tommy Genesis, Young M.A and Yung Lean have been inked in too.
M.I.A will follow Elbow’s Guy Garvey in overseeing the event, which will run from June 9 to 18 at the Southbank Centre in London. In a statement, she said:
"I'm bringing together new outlaw musicians from everywhere, who have contributed to keeping things weird, exciting, opinionated, loud, emotional and brave or off the grid in the present climate."
Tickets will go on general sale at 10am on April 6. Head here for details.
