Due to health reasons Lykke Li is no longer able to perform. A statement from Li provided by the festival reads:
 
“I'm incredibly sorry to announce that I’m no longer able to play in Australia, New Zealand and Singapore for Laneway Festival. It’s been a long time coming, but unfortunately tour life has caught up with me and it’s been recommended that I take a break. I’m devastated, but know I will return. Thank you for all the support, and I sincerely hope I can make it up to you at a later date."
 
Li's sideshows have also been cancelled.
 
To combat her absence, Tkay Maidza has joined the lineup.
