This year’s Laneway Festival at Flemington Racecourse was no exception with blistering sets, guest duos, and an 8 PM downpour that sent half the festival scrambling while the other endured through for one of the best headlining acts in years.

The show left me with an unexpected sense of patriotism. Dom Dolla is a true Aussie icon, and seeing his artistry unfold live filled me with pride. For a night that promised dance-floor euphoria, Dom delivered and then some.
