The amazing line-up for the next St Jerome's Laneway Festival, which takes place on Monday 30 January 2012 (Auckland Anniversary Day) in Auckland, New Zealand, has finally been announced.

Now in its third year, the St Jerome's Laneway Festival is one of the most unique musical events in New Zealand. This summer the festival is located at one of Auckland City's newest sites, the freshly revamped Silo Park, Wynyard Quarter, Beaumont Street.  The recently developed Auckland Waterfront with spectacular views to the Harbour Bridge and the towering restored silos will provide the backdrop for 2012's coolest indie line-up.

Over the last three years, Laneway Festival NZ has hosted many brilliant musical acts including New Zealanders 3Ds, Children's Hour and Cut Off Your Hands, as well as internationals Echo and the Bunnymen, Daniel Johnston, Foals, Yeasayer, The Dirty Three, Deerhunter, Beach House and Blonde Redhead.

Once again these ground-breaking, genre-bending musicians - some of which will be your recent discoveries and others soon-to-be your new favourites - will play this one day festival. And one thing unites them all: they are spine-tinglingly amazing live.

So here it is - the awesome list of acts playing at the 2012 Laneway Festival NZ, including some great kiwi acts!
