Laneway Announces 2014 Dates

Fontaines D.C. return after four years while Hayley Williams makes her Australian solo debut, with Slayyyter, Kim Petras, MUNA, Rico Nasty and more joining the 22nd Laneway Festival.

Laneway Festival will begin its 2027 campaign in Sydney for the first time, followed by Brisbane, Melbourne and Auckland across February.

Cavetown, the long running project of UK born artist Robin Skinner, has released his new album Running With Scissors, out now via Futures Music Group and Virgin Music Group. The record arrives as a defining chapter in Skinner's evolution, expanding the intimate bedroom pop foundations that first drew listeners to his work into a broader, more confrontational and emotionally layered statement about adulthood, responsibility and self definition.

Six-time Platinum indie favourite Cavetown has unveiled a new single, Sailboat, a luminous collaboration with Chloe Moriondo that signals an emotionally open new chapter ahead of his forthcoming album Running With Scissors. Co-produced with Underscores, the track blends chiptune shimmer, warped hyperpop textures and Cavetown's unmistakably intimate songwriting voice, capturing the nervous anticipation of new love and the quiet fear of leaving a mark on someone you care deeply about.

Laneway Festival has announced five new additions to its 2026 national lineup, with each act selected through the annual triple j Unearthed competition. The initiative continues its long history of elevating breakthrough talent across Australia, with the winners set to perform across Laneway's February run in the Gold Coast, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth. The program has been a launchpad for many rising acts, and the 2026 group reflects the depth of new Australian music.

Six time Platinum-selling indie artist Cavetown, the project of English singer and songwriter Robin Skinner, has released his new single NPC, the fourth preview from his upcoming album Running With Scissors, due 16 January 2026. The single arrives as Skinner prepares for an Australian visit next February, where he will appear at Laneway Festival alongside headline shows in Sydney and Melbourne.

Teen Jesus And The Jean Teasers have stepped into a bold new chapter with the release of their second album Glory, out now via Community Music / Mom + Pop. The Canberra-born, now Canberra and Melbourne-based punk-indie quartet have carved out an unmistakable presence in Australian music across the past few years, and Glory arrives as their most self-assured, emotionally charged and musically adventurous work to date.
