To mark their Bestival appearance, Florence + the Machine have put on fancy dress and covered Talking Heads' Wild Wild Life

Florence + the Machine have been announced as the Friday night headliners for Bestival, the festival curated by Rob da Bank and his wife Josie, on the Isle of Wight in September â€' and to mark the fact they have covered Talking Heads' Wild Wild Life.

Why that song? Because the fancy dress theme for this year's festival is wildlife.

Rob da Bank says: "The first time I met Flo she was whirling around like a spinning top to a Paul Simon track at a party I was DJing at. I hadn't even heard her open her mouth but she had this alluring vibe already."

The other headliners for the festival are Stevie Wonder and New Order, with the xx, Sigur Ros, Friendly Fires, Orbital, Frank Ocean and Hot Chip among the other acts announced.

The Guardian is the media partner of Bestival.

Fans of MGMT, Friendly Fires and the Rapture will find this Manchester band's latest single irresistible

This Mancunian five-piece may look like shy indie urchins, but given their name is slang for female genitalia and their artwork tends to feature naked flesh, perhaps all is not what it seems. While their latest single, Danz, doesn't appear to be about anything carnal, there is some pretty suggestive hip-swivelling going on in the video, which features a man dancing in a shopping centre, at a skate park and, most impressively, out Morrissey-ing Morrissey outside Salford Lads Club. Mind you, it's hard not to indulge in light toe-tapping once Danz gets into full swing. Mixing elements of MGMT, Friendly Fires and the Rapture it shifts from percussive verses to a sky-scraping chorus. Expect to be throwing some fairly awful shapes to it in a field somewhere this summer.
