BY Scott A. GrayPublished May 14, 2008

Our first scoop on the rumoured Rogers Picnic lineup turned out to be pretty accurate, so we're throwing out another tasty tidbit to whet your appetites for the impressive, if oddly mixed bill taking the stage at Historic Fork York in Toronto on Sunday, July 20.

Recent late night television frequenters Vampire Weekend will now be joining Cat Power, Tokyo Police Club, Chromeo, Animal Collective, Dizzee Rascal, Born Ruffians, the Carps and City and Colour for what's becoming a largely enticing collection of artists. If any more exciting musical additions emerge, we'll try to let you know here first. Until then, start thinking about how awesome it's likely to be to hear whatever it is Animal Collective have cooked up post Water Curses at what is so far the band's only announced Canadian date this summer.
