Also can be found here. Tickets are still available, pick them up from Real Groovy, Ticketmaster or http://auckland.lanewayfestival.com.au/. The new stage also looks promising, with Auckland electro-duo Golden Axe added to the line-up. I recently saw them open for Unknown Mortal Orchestra at Cassette 9 which was great, and although I'm most likely going to be seeing either Jessie Ware or Bailterspace at that time I'll try check them out for 20 mins before Yeasayer begin.
There's also an after party at Cassette 9 featuring another awesome local band Rackets, that you can check out here as well as The Eversons and a DJ set from New York-noise rock group A Place To Bury Strangers. Check the after party details out here. What an action packed day it shall be.
I will most likely be spending a lot of my time over the next week listening to Laneway artists gearing up for the day, so in the meantime, here's a few songs I'm looking forward to hearing (assuming the band's decide to play them) on the day.
Jessie Ware - If You're Never Gonna Move
Tame Impala - Elephant
The Men - Open Your Heart
Japandroids - Young Hearts Spark Fire
Bat For Lashes - A Wall
Real Estate - It's Real
Alt-J - Breezeblocks
Japandroids - The House That Heaven Built
Tame Impala - Desire Be Desire Go
As well as loads more, for Laneway is just as much a day to get introduced to bands that could becoming future favourites, as well as seeing current favourite emerging or recent artists. See you all there!
