Groove Armada are to headline Edinburgh's Hogmanay street party this year, with a performance at the city's Princes Street Gardens supported by Paolo Nutini. There are four live stages for the event, which stretches over four days, and other acts lined up to appear include Belle and Sebastian, Hot Chip and Glasvegas.
Pete Irvine, creative director says this: "With the best emerging and established music acts and exciting new events, we've added a new dimension to the event that brings an explosive mix of energetic music and arts. Undoubtedly, to see the best bands and be part of one of the world's best parties, there really is no better place to be than Edinburgh".
Groove Armada's Andy Cato adds this: "What appeals to me about Edinburgh's Hogmanay is that it is the most famous celebration of that type in the world. I've never been to it and I want to be there".
