Festival organiser John Giddings explained his choices: "With a brand new album coming out next year it’s great to welcome The Prodigy back to The Isle of Wight Festival – they never fail to deliver and are one of the best live acts around. We’re all big fans of The Black Keys and their live show is phenomenal, I know they’re going to go down well with the crowds. And of course man of the moment Pharrell Williams, this just continues to reaffirm him as one of music’s most exciting and crowd-pleasing artists around.”
