Following the cancellation of Spinnerette from the Jersey Live line up, Manchester electro-rock four-piece The Whip have stepped in as a late replacement. Having released several singles through super-cool French label Kitsune, they released their debut LP 'X Marks Destination' on Southern Fried Records in March of 2008. Mixing disco, rave and punk influences, they've been compared to the likes of New Order, Daft Punk and Kraftwerk, and their Jersey Live appearance continues a busy year of gigging which has seen them tour with Late of the Pier in the US, as well as performing at festivals in Germany, Finland, Austria, Turkey, Latvia and the UK.
The Whip's Saturday main stage confirmation completes a line up that includes Dizzee Rascal, Basement Jaxx and The Kooks.
Jersey Live Festival takes place at the Royal Jersey Showground, Jersey on 5th and 6th September.
