Alpine, Twerps, Pond And More For Laneway

Laneway has announced its 2013 line-up, and as usual it's strong on zeitgeist-y acts, from Alt-J to Jessie Ware to ‘Shivers’-covering Wolf Parade/Spoon offshoot Divine Fits. Australian acts include Alpine, Chet Faker, Flume, Henry Wagons, Pond (pictured), Twerps, The Rubens and Snakadaktal.

asbestos  said about 8 months ago:

Hmm, the stuff I'm most interested in here (Julia Holter, Nicolas Jaar, Perfume Genius) would be better seen as sideshows than at a festival, so a bit on the fence about it this year. Still, another pretty solid line-up.


Sunnyboyz  said about 8 months ago:

I'm pretty impressed by the summer festival lineups, and pretty disappointed that I won't be in the country to go to any of them.


mule  said about 8 months ago:

i feel so out of touch with what is going on at the moment...i have only heard music of 4 of those bands.


goldbuttons  said about 8 months ago:

I don't think I can be bothered going to this festival anymore, but this is the best line-up they've done in ages. And I'm really glad The Men are coming out here.


whatwhat  said about 8 months ago:

bat for lashes i really wanna see, but maybe solo rather than in festivus environment.


bigdaddykane  said about 8 months ago:

yeah, there's nothing like a laneway line-up to make me feel like i missed a whooole bunch of shit


LeRayonVert  said about 8 months ago:

What are these ''side shows'' people are talking about. I live in Adelaide and this concept is not familiar to me.
I'd definitely go to see Julia Holter & El-P anyway, plus always happy for there to be a bunch of unfamiliar things at Laneway, usually discover something new that I like.


whale  said about 8 months ago:

i reeeeeeeally hope they put holy other on after sunset


MelonHCST  said about 8 months ago:

2 weeks before ATP. How much impact will it have on ticket sales?


anonymous  said about 8 months ago:

depends, is your target ticket buyer above or below 30?


gabbo  said about 8 months ago:

GREAT LINEUP!

pumped for Cloud Nothings, El-P, Polica, Real Estate, The Men, Yeasayer, Alpine. The rest is enough to keep me entertained for the day.

Summer of festivals continues.


anok  said about 8 months ago:

bit underwhealmed, but wouldn't say no to a freebie.


mrmagoo  said about 8 months ago:

I thought Cat Power was a supposed chance for this??

GrantleyBuffalo  said about 8 months ago:

Alt-Ware and Jessie J!


chrowens  said about 7 months ago:

That's enough to get me there. Could actually see Flume closing the main stage considering how much he has blown up lately.


mrmagoo  said about 7 months ago:

presale at 9am


Temet  said about 7 months ago:

How much are tickets going for this year?

aloha  said about 7 months ago:

what's the rationale behind no sideshows for japandroids?

why do they hate us?


gabbo  said about 7 months ago:

Their stage show is too elaborate for most venues in Australia.


whale  said about 7 months ago:

it's sometimes hard to conceive of how popular Flume actually is.
