St Jerome's Laneway Festival Detroit has been cancelled for 2014.
The indie festival's Twitter and Facebook accounts had notices about the cancellation of the US event.
"We've decided to postpone Laneway Festival Detroit this year due to timing. We had an amazing time last year and hope to return in 2015!" the festival's organisers tweeted on Tuesday.
The festival, which began in Melbourne in 2004, now takes place in Adelaide, Auckland, Brisbane, Fremantle, Melbourne, Singapore and Sydney. The Detroit festival in 2013 was the organisers' first foray into the US and was deemed a success at the time with over 7500 fans attending.
Organisers said the festival had been postponed because they couldn't book the musicians they wanted.

"We tried to get the very few acts that we felt would be appropriate for Laneway and none of them were available. We had one that went all the way to the wire and then changed its mind at the very last minute - bless their beautiful heart too, they were under so much pressure to be everywhere and anywhere and something had to give," they posted on the festival's Facebook page.
"We decided that we needed to be honest with ourselves and sit it out this year and review it again next year."
They also said they had no intention of bringing Laneway to "any other city in America unless Detroit could be part of it."
Performers at last year's Detroit festival included Aussie electronic supremo Flume and international bands such as Chvrches, Sigur Ros and The National.
