V Festival have announced two up-and-coming acts who will open this year's festivals.

The Last Republic and Underline The Sky have won this year's Road To V contest, after playing sets at Brighton's The Great Escape event in May ahead of The Charlatans and Just Jack, who have mentored this year's entrants.

The two hotly tipped bands joing festival favourites The Killers and Oasis at V this summer along with a whole host of other bands.

Underline the Sky will play Chelmsford on the Saturday (August 22) and Stafford the next day, with The Last Republic going the opposite way.
