You know the story, boy sees girl, boy loves girl, boys stalks girl, boy creates elaborate monkey puppet VHS and ding dong ditches it on girl’s door step. Tale as old as time. But this tune is not as old as song!
Hungry Kids Of Hungary’s new video for their summery zinger of a track Scattered Diamonds taken from their debut album Escapades explores love in the time of indie-chic, proving romance (and the VHS) isn’t dead!

Laneway Festival Organisers have announced the addition of local artists and at the Perth and Brisbane events.
In Perth, the festival site has grown significantly and expanded further into the streets, creating more room inside the festival grounds. The festival also regains access to the picturesque Urban Orchard in front of the Art Gallery which will be transformed into an international farmers’ market – where patrons go sit amongst the fruit and veg gardens whilst chowing down on the fine festival grub on offer.
In Brisbane, Laneway has partnered up with iconic Brisbane venue THE ZOO and taste-making music conference BIGSOUND. Both have helped program the new ZOO/BIGSOUND Stage – a new and ongoing feature of the festival in Brisbane.
The following artists have also been added to the line up:
Brisbane and Perth
Gareth Liddiard (The Drones) – John Steel Singers
Brisbane Only
The Jezebels – Toy Balloon – Hungry Kids of Hungary
Perth Only
Blud – Canyons – Carl Fox – Felicity Groom – The Growl – Injured Ninja – The Joe Kings – San Cisco (formally King George) – Ruby Boots – Seams – Split Seconds – Path to Laneway
