  • St. Jerome's Laneway Festival has revealed the lineup for its 2015 tour. Each year the festival, which started out as a one-date event in Melbourne back in 2004, brings an eclectic mix of indie and electronic artists to a range of unique venues around Australia and, in more recent years, New Zealand and Singapore as well. This summer's tour will see Caribou returning to the country for the first time in four years to head up a list of dance heavyweights that also includes Jon Hopkins, Rustie and Flying Lotus, who will once again bring his Layer 3 live A/V show along. Also featuring on the international lineup are rising UK singer FKA twigs, Little Dragon, St Vincent, Lykke Li and Kiwi musician Connan Mockasin. The domestic scene will be represented by artists like Seekae and Flight Facilities. Following the Singapore and Auckland events, the Australian run of shows kicks off on January 31st at Brisbane Showgrounds, followed by the Sydney College Of The Arts on February 1st. The tour heads to Hart's Hill in Adelaide on the 6th and the Footscray Community Arts Centre in Melbourne on the 7th, before wrapping up at Esplanade Park in Fremantle on February 8th.
