The organisers of V Festival have confirmed who’ll be headlining this year’s event.

Amy Winehouse, Kings of Leon and The Verve join Muse at the pinnacle of the weekend’s bill, which takes place as usual at dual sites in Chelmsford and Staffordshire from the 16th ‘til the 17th of August.

Two of those acts were of course confirmed to headline Glastonbury last month, while – what’s this? - DrownedinSound brought you this news as rumours a little while back. Others for V include Stereophonics, The Prodigy and Girls Aloud, full list so far from the festival website below:
