V Festival director Bob Angus said he was delighted to see the return of former Road to V winners Young Knives at the event.
He said: "It was only a couple of years ago that the Young Knives won the ‘Road to V’ competition and now they return high up on the Virgin Mobile Union Stage bill.
"We’re thrilled to have them back as an established band.”
