After a well-received set from fan favorites Chvrches, led by ethereal vocalist Lauren Mayberry, it was up to Blake to close the show.

Perhaps his generally chill, laidback vibe lacked that “oomph” that characterized the finale acts in Laneways past (M83, Gotye, et al), but it was nonetheless a worthy and welcome exclamation point to a truly amazing festival. Laneway 2015 cannot come soon enough.
