Laneway Festival 2013

SJ

St Jerome’s Laneway Festival, predominantly an indie music festival that began in 2006 in Australia, made it’s way to Singapore since 2011 and it’s about to get bigger and better in 2013!

With the rapidly growing indie subculture in Singapore, the holding of Laneway Festival is only apt to feed these hungry music lovers. Due to the overwhelming crowd from the previous two years, the new venue for the Singapore show has been moved to The Meadow, at Gardens by the Bay. With the panoramic view of cooled conservatories and the cityscape as backdrop, I’m sure Laneway Festival would be transfixing.

Picture yourself with a couple of beers in plastic cups, the blazing Singaporean heat, and your favorite bands playing consecutively one after another, all only for SGD $145! That’s approximately only $14 per band!!! Can you spell W O R T H?

Not convinced enough? Here’s the stunning line up for the 2013 Laneway Festival in Singapore (with additional special acts exclusive to Singapore)! Continue Reading →
