The Vaccines and The Horrors will co-headline the very first Chazzstock Festival.
The non-profit event will be held at Stanford Hall, Leicestershire from June 9-10. It will be dedicated to the late Charlie Haddon of Ou Est La Swimming Pool, who committed suicide in August 2010.
The Vaccines member Freddie Cowan said of the festival: "Chazzstock is a non-profit festival set up for charity in name and memory of my dear late friend Charlie Haddon.
"It was a long held ambition of Charlie's to put on his own festival, as always he was rarely concerned with anything but the enjoyment of others and with the combined efforts of his friends and family we are going to see that dream materialise this summer."
He added: "Expect a festival set up with a unique love and attention, just a few miles from his home, in the beautiful grounds of Stanford Hall, Leicestershire.
"Please look out for further lineup announcements. Thank you, and we hope to see you there."
The Vaccines recently won the Xfm 'New Music Award' ahead of Noel Gallagher.
