A host of female fronted acts make up much of the bill for the 2012 Laneway Festival, announced this morning.
Feist, Laura Marling, Anna Calvi and highly touted LA newcomer EMA are some of the bigger names in the line-up, alongside M83, The Horrors and Girls. The festival will kick-off January 28th in Brisbane and wrap up Saturday 11th February in Perth.
