Little Boots will gallop into Ultra Music Festival on Day 1.

Here it is. What everyone has been waiting for. Phase 2 of Ultra Music Festival's lineup has been announced.

There are the expected additions like David Guetta, Laidback Luke, Benny Benassi, Kaskade, Boys Noize, and Paul Oakenfold. But what really has us excited are the out-of-left-field bookings.

Nas and Damian Marley will rock the main stage on Day 2. The pair recently performed together during Nas' concert at the Arsht Center.

Also added to the bill is English electropop singer Little Boots -- think Lady Gaga but with more substance.

Also the on-again, off-again pairing of Sasha & Digweed will happen in the Carl Cox & Friends Arena on Day 2.

Full line up after the jump. Tickets are still on sale via ultramusicfestival.com for $139.95 for a general admission two-day pass and $350 for VIP.
