Embrace replace Jet at V

19 August 2004

Following the announcement on Wednesday that Jet have been forced to pull out of this weekend's V Festival due to a family death, Embrace have agreed to step in last minute.

Having spent time co-writing with Coldplay's Chris Martin, the band have crashed back onto the music scene this summer with forthcoming single 'Gravity' and their eagerly anticipated new album 'Out of Nothing'.

Having helped define brit-pop in the nineties, Embrace's comeback at the V Festival this weekend is shaping up to be the greatest since Lazarus!

Embrace will now warm-up for NME stage headliners Kings Of Leon for both legs of the V Festival, which takes place this weekend (21-22 August) at Hylands Park, Chelmsford, and Weston Park, Staffordshire.
