The Independent is trusted by 27 million Americans from across the entire political spectrum every month. Unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock you out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. But quality journalism must still be paid for.

Latitude festival has announced its lineup for 2018, revealing that The Killers, Solange and Alt-J will headline this year's event in July.

Grammy-award winner Solange will appear in a UK exclusive, likely performing music from her incredible album A Seat at the Table, while The Killers will also bring their renowned live show to Henham Park in Suffolk.

Alt-J said of their headline slot: "We are over the moon to be returning to Latitude for a fourth time. It's a festival that's nurtured us beyond any other, taking us from the Lake Stage to the 6 Music Stage and then to headlining in 2015. To do so again is a huge privilege. See you in Suffolk!"

Also announced to perform are The Vaccines, Wolf Alice, Rag'n'Bone Man, Mogwai, Jon Hopkins, Jessie Ware, Benjamin Clementine, Alvvays, Parquet Courts, IDLES and Hinds.

Bolstering its reputation for solid comedy bookings, Latitude will also host acts including Bridget Christie, Harry Hill, Mo Gilligan and Lauren Pattison.
