Norway's exception Øya Festival has announced a new batch of names, including Young Thug, The xx, and homegrown producer Cashmere Cat.
Pixies and Kelly Lee Owens are also set to join the bill, which already features Lana Del Rey, Mac DeMarco, Jenny Hval, Vince Staples, and more.
It's no secret that we're a bit in love with Øya - in our review of last year's edition we wrote that "Øya [is] close to the perfect festival."
Øya Festival 2017 takes place 8-12 August at Tøyenparken, Oslo. Find out more.
