Lykke Li Announces Laneway Sideshow Date

Swedish pop sensation Lykke Li is yet another artist on the mammoth St Jerome's Laneway Festival line-up to be blessed with her own headline date while she's in the country for the annual event.

The singer who brought us infectious hits such as Little Bit, I Follow Rivers and Dance, Dance, Dance will take to the Forum Theatre, in Melbourne, on Thursday, January 29, with yet-to-be-announced special guests backing her up.

General-release tickets for Lykke Li's Victorian headline show will go on sale from 9am local time this Friday, November 7. There will be a festival presale before then, though: armed with your password (GUNSHOT), you'll have 24 hours exactly — assuming they don't sell out quicker — to make your dash for a first-release pass. The pre-sale kicks off at midday this Wednesday, November 5, and runs until Thursday, November 6.
