Fire! Santa Rosa, Fire! and Fabulous Diamonds added to Laneway Festival

Fire! Santa Rosa, Fire! and Fabulous Diamonds have been added to the Laneway Festival lineups in Adelaide and Melbourne respectively.

Having won triple j's unearthed competition, F!SR,F! recently wowed Sydney's Homebake crowd with their unique angular pop. They've also been busy completing their new album, the first single from which is War Coward. The digital EP also features a remix by electro-mashup outfit and fellow Adelaide Laneway guests The Waterslides.

Melbourne audiences should be no strangers to the hypnotic and enthralling sounds produced by Jarrod Zlatic and Nisa Venerosa of Fabulous Diamonds. The duo will play the Melbourne Laneway having completed a 30 date tour with Times New Viking and Psychedelic Horseshit earlier in the year. During that time they also released their debut album 7 songs in the US through Siltbreeze, receiving a 7.4 rating from Pitchfork who described their songs as "smooth enough to run your fingers over".
