X Factor finalists MK1 are among the latest acts announced to play at Thanet's Sound Island Festival.

The hip-hop duo, comprising Charlotte ‘Charlie’ Rundle and Simeon ‘Sim’ Dixon, became the first urban music act to advance to the live shows of the ITV talent show last year.

They will be playing on the second day of the weekend event at Quex Park, which is being headlined by Jessie J, with guest performances by Lawson and Union J

Saturday’s line-up is being headlined by Plan B, with guest performances by Rita Ora and James Arthur, along with rapper Giggs, Bebe Black and Little Nikki.

Other acts to join Sunday's line-up include The Vamps, a new four-piece UK band who became an internet sensation with their cover of One Direction’s Live While We’re Young, and have just signed to EMI.

And pop fans will love Joywride, one of the most dynamic live acts to emerge from London's underground in years.

Spokesman Dion Clements said:“MK1 already have a rapidly expanding fan-base while The Vamps and Joywride are tipped by industry insiders as ones to watch, so to have them all come and perform the same stage at Sound Island Festival as Jessie J, Lawson and Union J, offers a great opportunity for music fans to see rising artistes perform live at the very start of their budding careers.”

The Sound Island Festival will take place on Saturday, July 27 and Sunday, July 28, July 2013 at Quex Park, Birchington-On-Sea.
