Pop rapper Example has been added to the line-up of this year's Great Escape Festival in Brighton.
The chart topping star, who this week announced the release of his new single 'Kids Again', will be joining some of the biggest new names in music at the event in May, which showcases the best upcoming bands and artists, alongside some of the coolest stars on the international music scene.
Speaking of Example's addition to the event, festival director Kat Morris said in a statement: "It is really great to be welcoming Example back to The Great Escape - from playing at one of our venues with a capacity of 200, to touring internationally and achieving two No.1 Singles, to this year performing at our biggest venue with a capacity of almost 2000, it just goes to show the incredible trajectory of TGE artists go on to take after performing at the festival."
This year's Great Escape Festival takes place on 8-10 May 2014, including a special performance from US superstar Kelis, who returns to the UK to perform new tracks from her upcoming album, Food.
