Europe's largest festival for new music The Great Escape announced another 150 artists this week to go alongside the 200 or so already confirmed in January. And that isn't all, with another 100 set to be added over the coming weeks.

As with previous years, Drowned In Sound will be hosting a stage at the festival. This year we'll be playing host to five acts at the Sallis Benney Theatre on Thursday 19th May. We'll be announcing full details of our line-up next month.

In the meantime, here's a selection of artists we're excited about seeing over the course of the festival, which runs from 19-21 May across numerous venues throughout Brighton.
