The dates in Manchester are as follows:
Santogold - Friday 16th May - Roadhouse
Sam Sparro with Jack McManus - Friday 16th May - Night And Day
We Are Scientists - Saturday 17th May - Academy 2
Young Knives - Sunday 18th May - Club Academy

Hadouken! will be playing an under 18s show on the Camden Crawl's Red Bull Stage. You don't need Camden Crawl tickets to go, just to sign up for the guest list on their website: www.redbullbedroomjam.co.uk. Other new additions to the line-up include Ice, Sea, Dead People and Rolo Tomassi.

New additions to the Latitude Festival include Grinderman, Mars Volta, The Go! Team, Seasick Steve and Tindersticksp, as well as Omid Djalili and Dave Gorman on the non-musical side of things.
