Swift Assign two values to UITableViewCell

Is it possible to assign two values to a cell in a UITableView?

I have a json file that is structured like this:

{
   "band": [
      "Name": "The Kooks",
      "id": "1258"
  ]
}

I can get the label to display in the cell and pass it to a new view controller, but how do I also assign the id so that I can pass that too?

I am new to swift so please dont eat me.

Edit 1:

func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
    
    let cell:UITableViewCell = self.tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("cell")! as UITableViewCell
    
    cell.textLabel?.text = self.items[indexPath.row]
    
    return cell
}

items is empty, so I get it like so:

Alamofire.request(.GET, testurl, parameters: ["bandName": bandName])
        .responseJSON { response in
            switch response.result {
            case .Success:
                if let value = response.result.value {
                    let json = JSON(value)
                    
                    for (_,bands) in json {
                      for (_,bname) in bands {
                           let bandName = bname["Name"].stringValue
                            
                            print(bandName)
                            
                            self.items.append(bandName)
                            
                            self.tableView.reloadData()
                           
                        }
                    }
                    
                }
            case .Failure(let error):
                print(error)
            }
            
    }

you should not add every value in bname Dictionary to self.items. Try add bname to self.items,code:

Alamofire.request(.GET, testurl, parameters: ["bandName": bandName])
    .responseJSON { response in
        switch response.result {
        case .Success:
            if let value = response.result.value {
                let json = JSON(value)

                for (_,bands) in json {
                  for (_,bname) in bands {

                        self.items.append(bname)

                        self.tableView.reloadData()

                    }
                }

            }
        case .Failure(let error):
            print(error)
        }

}

and in cellForRowAtIndexPath use it: func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {

    let cell:UITableViewCell = self.tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("cell")! as UITableViewCell
    if let dic = self.items[indexPath.row] as? NSDictionary{
        if let id = dic["id"] as? String{
            cell.idLabel.text = id
        }
        if let name = dic["Name"] as? String{
            cell.nameLabel.text = name
        }
    }
    return cell
}

Create class or model with these properties and assign values in objects keep object in NSarray that works as datasource get object from datasource using selected indexpath and pass object to your new viewcontroller using prepareForSegue.
