Primavera Sound Festival has just released their 2016 lineup featuring Radiohead, LCD Soundsystem and Sigur Ros to name a few.
The Primavera Sound Festival has been a running annual music festival since 2001 and has seen huge acts such as The White Striples, Iggy and the Stooges, Lou Reed, Motorhead and Neil Young to name a few. Located in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain, Primavera Sound is one of the largest music festivals in Spain.
Coming up on the festival’s 16th year, Primavera definitely prepared for one of its biggest years yet. With their top billers being the infamous Radiohead, the recently reformed LCD Soundsystem and PJ Harvey they are set to blow the crowds away. Other artists include Tame Impala, Sigur Ros, Animal Collective, Beach House and Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys with a specification of performing Pet Sounds. Pet Sounds was the 11th studio album from the Beach Boys and for any fan of classic 60s Beach Boys sound this will be a treat. These are just a few of the first tier of artists that will be performing at the festival.
Down to the second tier of the featured artists Primavera will include Kamasi Washington, Neon Indian, Jay Rock and the 90s Seattle heroes Mudhoney to, again, just name few. The third tier of artists includes many notable acts such as Black Lips, Roosevelt and The Chills.
Pitchfork will program their own stage at the festival, like they have done in the past.
