This year's city-hopping Dot To Dot fest has announced its first wave of acts, with Pinegrove, Swimming Tapes, Ardyn, and Nilüfer Yanya heading up the pack.

Honeyblood, Sundara Karma, Cherry Glazerr, Horse Thief, Amber Run, The Night Café, All We Are, Parekh & Singh, and more are also set to play the springtime shindig, which takes place in Manchester, Bristol, and Nottingham.

Dot To Dot Organiser Anton Lockwood says: "We pride ourselves on finding and nurturing new artists, we can’t wait to see the stars of the future playing in small venues this year before their big breaks. This first announcement is only the tip of the iceberg, and there are loads more phenomenal performers still to be announced across multiple venues very soon!"

Big names such as The xx, Ed Sheeran, The 1975, Caribou, Wolf Alice, SBTKRT, Florence + The Machine, and Courtney Barnett have all played at Dot To Dot.
