BRIT Award winners Elbow are to headline this year's Bestival music festival on the Isle of Wight.
The Manchester band who have been riding high in their most successful year after scooping the Mercury Music Prize and Best British Group award at this year's Brits will top the bill of the event at Robin Hill Country Park.
The three day festival organised by Radio One DJ Rob da Bank already has Lilly Allen, Kraftwerk, Massive Attack, MGMT and The Klaxons amongst the line-up for the weekend of September 11 to 13.
Music fans will also be allowed to pay for their tickets over three months in a move to spread the cost of the festival by organisers.
"Most of the line-up is now fixed. I am delighted about getting Elbow, anyone who saw them at Glastonbury will know what an incredibly uplifting set it was," said Rob.
