EXCLUSIVE: Solange, Sampha and Jamie xx join the Lovebox line-up!

As well as scoring the major coup that is Frank Ocean’s only London date this year, Victoria Park’s Lovebox Festival today announced a whole new raft of excellent acts coming to Victoria Park this July.

The big news is Solange Knowles will be joining the Oceanic Friday line-up. But the whole weekend is insanely exciting: there’ll also be full shows from amazing beatsmith Jamie xx, Sampha, Rag ’n’ Bone Man and rapper Mac Miller, and a set from amazing Canadian remixer Kaytranada.

Returning this year will be Fabric, with its dark, sweet-sounding tent version of the club. Seth Troxler, Bicep and Kink will all be blessing the space with some techno goodness. Saturday is also looking strong, with rinse-out maestros Chase & Status and Andy C confirmed for the Main Stage, plus Kurupt FM, Jamie Jones, AJ Tracey and Ricardo Villalobos also slated for Saturday.
