A pair of punk legends will also play the festival

Dirty Pretty Things, New York Dolls and Siouxsie have been added to the bill at the 02 Wireless festival.

The acts are amongst a host of additions to the July 4 date of the festival, which will be headlined by Morrissey.

The Mancunian singer has a long-standing relationship with the punk legends - he was President of the New York Dolls' fanclub as a teenager and collaborated with Siouxsie on his 1994 single 'Interlude'.

Beck, The National, Guillemots, and Lightspeed Champion are also set to perform at the festival, taking place in London's Hyde Park.

Fatboy Slim and Counting Crows headline the event on June 5 and 6, respectively.
