James Blake and The 1975 are amongst the latest names to be added to this year's Bestival line-up. 

Other acts confirmed for the weekend include Savages, Willy Moon and Courtney Pine as the festival looks to celebrate its tenth birthday in style.

Bestival organiser Rob da Bank said: "Bestival is ten years old this year and I always want our festival to stay fresh and new so I'm well pleased with the latest artist additions.

"Courtney Pine, legendary jazz musician, is going to open the whole birthday spectacular on the Thursday and from that point on we're gonna be treated to a plethora of new bands and talent from new indie upstarts Savages and London Grammar to incredible electronic explorations from Hieroglyphic Being and Evian Christ.

"Not forgetting returning hero James Blake who's part of the fabric of recent Bestivals. Hope you enjoy listening to all this lovely lot!"

The new acts will join previously announced headliners Elton John, Snoop Dogg, Wu-Tang Clan and The Flaming Lips for the three-day festival in September.

Appearances from Elton John, MIA, The Roots and The Flaming Lips will be UK festival exclusives for 2013.
