Hyde Park Calling, which is happening on Saturday 1st and Sunday 2nd July at London's Hyde Park, have announced some more acts.

The Lightning Seeds are the last main act to be announced, as headliners of the second stage on Saturday night. Joining them on the Saturday are Rocco Deluca and the Burden (a folk-blues band signed to Kiefer Sutherland’s Ironworks label who are creating a huge following in America) who open the stage, and they're followed by Blackbud (their album 'From The Sky' is out next month: we've had a listen and we say 'buy' :-).

On Sunday, the main stage will be opened by Rose Hill Drive. The second stage is opened by indie rockers Kharma 45, followed by two Canadian bands, The Waking Eye, and Mobile.

Hyde Park Calling has on the Saturday Roger Waters (of course), Texas, Starsailor, Chris Difford, Breaks Co-op, Robert Cray, Suzanne Vega, and more, and the Sunday has The Who, Razorlight, The Zutons, Ocean Colour Scene, Primal Scream, and more - click here for full details.

Tickets are priced at £42.50 for either day, or £80 for both days - click here to buy.
