Primavera Sound 2024

[diogozsz]

Somebody on Azkena Rock’s forum said they heard about some of the names YunT heard about + PJ Harvey and Troye Sivan

[scatteredscreens]

Really hope that DCFC booking is a bundle with Postal Service, hopefully DCFC doing Transatlanticism too

[Marty76]

Troye Sivan? Must admit I'd never heard of the dude, but listening now and don't see how this would fit Primavera.

Probably just me getting old and out of touch, but in my opinion they might as well book Enrique Iglesias instead. Luckily all other names mentioned today (even incl. Kylie) are more of my taste.

Kendrick for hip hop slot? Doing some fests at the start of the year.

Is Nicki Minaj possible as the big rap/mainstream act? She just announced a tour with dates in the UK, Paris and Berlin. 

Am i stupid or has she announced only where shell play but not when? 😄

 

if those are in june, I‘d say shes in

Karol G won the Latin Grammy albums award for Album of the Year. I guess maybe she’s gonna be too big for Primavera.

His last album was quite acclaimed and he fits the pop queer-friendly acts that primavera has been focusing on for some years now like Charli XCX or Rina Sawayama

If you are going by that logic, Rosalía wouldn't have played PS this year. I haven't looked at  tour dates, buts I would say she in play rn to play.

No idea of his popularity, would he be on the topline? 

Don't mind a few pop acts as I prefer not to spend most of my time at the main stages. Just a reality check for me that I'm not as much of a music nerd than I thought I was and I have some serious gaps in my knowledge... 😃

apparently Paramore are doing Sziget, so they are doing shows outside the Taylor Swift support

That’s because Taylor European Tour ends around June/July as far as I remember. Don’t think they will do festivals during her tour.

it actually ends at the end of august, so if they confirm sziget they'll have to do it between Vienna and London shows

Then they could be in. And in my opinion they are quite a Primavera booking, so maybe they’ll come.

He'd probably get a high placement like Janelle Monae or Robyn in 2019

Speaking of.. Janelle Monae toured only US with her latest album. Maybe she's the missing surprise?

[quentin_Tent]

Has anyone thought for a hop hop legacy act Blazin’ Squad? I know they’ve not toured for a while, but Primavera are good at getting reunions.

What about belle and Sebastian  US tour finishes May 19th

Mountain Goats doing a UK Eire tour finishes May 26 

Can see them both on lineup

You really dont wanna have a dude screaming white power with your queer and poc crowd

as for Troye Sivan, second row seems fine for him, maybe co-headlining a main stage

Pantera's lead singer has - to put it mildly - a dubious personality. No way they'll book them.

Could be, but her new album flopped so I doubt she'll be a headliner.

Don’t wanna be that guy but… fingers crossed for The National
