Gallows, Frank Turner and Land Of Talk have been announced as headliners for the DrownedinSound-curated shows at this year’s Great Escape Festival.

Eleven acts have been confirmed to play the DiS shows at Zap in Brighton on May 17-19, with one act still in the pipeline.

In other, seamlessly-linked news, DiS is feeling rather pleased with itself at the moment, since our readership figures for last week topped 200,000 for the first time in the history of mankind.

Can we have a badge now?

Here is the rather smashing line-up we’ve managed to assemble, in all its glory:

Thursday May 17
Kubichek 19.00 - 19.30
Youthmovies 19.45 - 20.15
Laura Marling 20.30 - 21.00
Frank Turner 21.30 - 22.15

Friday May 18
TBC 19.00 - 19.30
I Was A Cub Scout 19.45 - 20.15
The Scare 20.30 - 21.00
Gallows 21.30 - 22.15

Saturday May 19
Rockettothesky 19.00 - 19.30
Ox.Eagle.Lion.Man 19.45 - 20.15
The Strange Death Of Liberal England 20.30 - 21.00
Land Of Talk 21.30 - 22.15

travelling down from the mighty Reading to see Laura Marling with Frank Turner afterwards = a bloody good idea.

I supported the Scare at the Louisiana in Bristol last September, they were awesome but they really liked my Manic F Rap act

You've got a rap act?

I have to see that. You seem to be at virtually every gig I go to so one of these days it's bound to happen...
