LEEDS-BASED indie rockers Kaiser Chiefs have been announced as the second of three headliners for this year's Guernsey Festival.

The band will take to the main stage at The Rabbit Warren on Sunday 24 June.

Formed in 1996 the group came into their own with the release of their 2005 debut album, Employment, which brought acclaim with hits such as 'Everyday I Love You Less and Less,' the mod-spirited 'I Predict a Riot' and 'Oh My God', which was later covered by Lily Allen.

Their follow-up album release, Yours Truly, Angry Mob, featured the UK number one single 'Ruby' and helped secure their popularity.

Joining the Kaiser Chiefs on stage and performing immediately beforehand will be acclaimed alternative rockers The Charlatans, who have been performing for more than 20 years. The Brit-poppers will be performing their classic album 'Tellin' Stories' in its entirety to celebrate the 15th anniversary of the album's release.

Peaking at number one in the charts, the album spawned three top ten singles: 'One to Another', 'North Country Boy' and 'How High.'

The festival will also host up-and-coming pop star Daniela Brooker on the main stage on Saturday 23 June. She has previously toured with The Saturdays as well as gaining airplay on BBC Radio One.
