Sweden's Way Out West festival has announced a handful of new names for its 2017 event, with The xx, Frank Ocean, and Chance The Rapper heading up the new wave.
Mac DeMarco, The Black Madonna, and Danny Brown are also set to join the party. These new names link up with the already-announced Lana Del Rey, Angel Olsen, Perfume Genius, Pixies, Young Thug, and more.
Last year's marvellous bash saw performances from Sia, Morrissey, PJ Harvey, Skepta, Stormzy, Jamie xx, and more.
Way Out West 2017 takes place 10-12 August in Gothenburg's Slottsskogen park and various city centre venues. Tickets are on sale now.
