Laneway Festival Drops The Goods

Ahhh… There’s no explanation about it, but the very nice people over at St. Jerome’s Laneway Festival (aka Australia’s finest one-day music festival) have just dropped the first half of the 2018 lineup a day early… and it’s a bloody banger.

A wee while back, it was announced that the Mr Mac DeMarco and Anderson .Paak were topping the summer time bill. This resulted in the presale allotment sell the hell out rather quickly- records were set apparently.

So who will be gracing the Laneway stages from Singapore to Fremantle this season:

Aldous Harding – Alex Cameron – Amy Shark – Anderson .Paak & The Free Nationals – *BADBADNOTGOOD – Billie Eilish – *Bonobo – Cable Ties – City Calm Down – Dream Wife – Father John Misty – **KLLO – Loyle Carner – Mac DeMarco – Miss Blanks – Moses Sumney – *ODESZA – Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever – (Sandy) Alex G – Shame – Slowdive – Sylvan Esso – **The Babe Rainbow – *The Internet – The War on Drugs – TOKiMONSTA – *Wolf Alice

*Excluding Freo
**Exclusive to Laneway

Or if you’re more inclined to learning in video format:

SO MUCH GOODNESS.

That’s only half of the acts playing with many more acts to be confirmed.
