An announcement from the promoters said, "The line up is shaping up really nicely and we still have more top acts to announce over the coming weeks. There’s a good balance between some great indie acts, some exciting new guitar bands and then what's becoming a really exciting DJ and Electronic line up. The Orb are a great addition to Rock Ness and will definitely be one of the highlights as will the return of Mylo and debuts from Pendulum DJs, Midnight Juggernauts and Boys Noize. It's definitely going to be the best Rock Ness ever."
