Following last year's success, the Stag and Dagger festival returns for a sophomore edition of an urban festival spanning multiple venues across three major UK cities.

The S & D, as we'll soon grow to call it, will take place on May 21st in London, May 22nd in Leeds and May 23rd in Glasgow.

The inaugural line-up featured the likes of M.I.A's and Santogold's collaborator DJ Diplo, groovy collective Hot Chip, Blondie-cum-Pat Benatar Kiwi-bred reincarnation Ladyhawke, the genuinely ace electro-punksters Dead Kids, and Undertones revivers The Metros, among others.

Though no line-up has yet been announced, booking your tickets now is not much of a risk, given that at just ten pounds, and with last year's great lineup your investment is secure (unlike most other investments at this point in time).
