Laneway 2012 lineup leak?
Fri 7th Oct, 2011 in Local News
Update:
THE LEAK WAS RIGHT – CHECK OUT THE FULL LINEUP HERE
The St Jerome’s Laneway Festival lineup for 2012 will be released next Monday, which means that you only have a few more days to ponder who will set hipster hearts racing when the lineup is finally revealed.
The festival promoters have been generous with their hype building hints and tips, revealing that the lineup will feature 26 international bands, “six female artists (or female-fronted bands)”, “ lots of fine Canadian folk” and “loads of electronica on the 2012 bill and a few of our favourite chillwavers”.
Laura Marling has already been tentatively confirmed as one of those female artists on the lineup and now thanks to a hastily deleted tweet is looks as though we can add to two more to the lineup – Laneway festival class of 2008 alumni Feist and Mercury nominated singer Anna Calvi.
The leaky tweet was posted by the crew behind the upcoming Seeker Lover Keeper church tour – Heavenly Sounds – and quickly screen grabbed before they had a chance to delete it. Sure, there’s always a possibility that the Heavenly Sounds folk were just compiling a wishlist for their next all female church tour, but why would they delete that?
Either way we’ll find out very soon if we’ll be hearing Feist’s new record Metals and Anna Calvi’s wonderful self titled debut on the Laneway tour in February.
