- Primavera Sound 2019, going down from May 30th through June 1st, has announced its lineup. Among the headliners for the Barcelona festival are Robyn, Erykah Badu, SOPHIE, Charli XCX, James Blake, Stereolab, Richie Hawtin (performing his CLOSE live set) and Modeselektor. In terms of DJs, they've lined up Joy Orbison, Helena Hauff, Yaeji, Laurel Halo, Avalon Emerson, Jayda G and a back-to-back from Eris Drew and Octo Octa. Live sets will come from Objekt, Anastasia Kristensen, Apparat, Tim Hecker and his Konoyo Ensemble, Veronica Vasicka and plenty more. This year, Primavera seeks to highlight "equality, eclecticism and audacity" in their lineup, according to a press release. "Equality in the lineup between men and women, a stylistic eclecticism that is patently obvious and the drive to constantly take risks to connect to the times we live in are central concepts of the Primavera Sound 2019 lineup," the statement adds. "All of this without abandoning the presentation of a lineup that is absolutely unique in the world, risky and convincing, as it is every year." For the full lineup, check out the flyer and event listing below. Watch the trailer for the festival.
