Laneway Festival have revealed the triple j Unearthed winners who will perform at the 2026 edition.
Joining the likes of headliner Chappell Roan, American indie rockers Wet Leg, singer-songwriter and producer Alex G, British pop enigma PinkPantheress, Swedish hip-hop duo Yung Lean and Bladee and indie artist Role Model are five emerging Australian acts ready to strut their stuff and showcase how awesome our music scene is.
Indie folk singer-songwriter Ullah will perform at Laneway Festival in Perth, local pop rock outfit PASH will play in Adelaide and Sydney-based indie-pop singer-songwriter Charli Lucas has been tapped to hit the stage in Sydney. Then you’ve got surf rock five-piece Mid Drift in Brisbane and alt-rock band Sleepazoid performing in Melbourne.
Laneway Festival Head of Programming, Travis Banko, says the partnership with triple j Unearthed remains crucial to the event’s identity: “Laneway and triple j Unearthed share a genuine love of supporting artists at early, pivotal moments in their careers. This year’s winners each bring something new to the 2026 lineup, and we’re incredibly proud to help spotlight them.”
