PRIMAVERA SOUND
º 30th – 1st of Juneº
The parity in the program between men and women, a stylistic eclecticism that jumps at sight and the drive to risk constantly to connect with the new times mark the axes of the poster of Primavera Sound 2019. It is the culmination of what had been sensing in the last editions of the festival,definitively captured in 226 names of which more than 50% are women, with a diversity of genres ranging from extreme metal to reggaeton through pop, hip hop, jazz, experimentation electronic, the trap and the indie rock canonical,and with an evident bet by the renovation of the most outstanding positions of the poster.
