Primavera Sound2011

The Primavera Sound is the highlight of the festival calendar is Spain, and easily one of the best in Europe! The venues include: Parc del Fórum and the Poble Espanyol.
This year line-up is incredible, some of our favorites include; US turn-table legend DJ Shadow, nouveau folk band Fleet Foxes, Interpol, Lindstrøm, P.I.L., Pj Harvey, Sufjan Stevens, Grinderman, Flaming Lips, and come-backs from Low, and Mercury Rev In other words, the line-up is heavily biased towards US indie artists, and none the worse for it! Dates: 25-29 May.


Caribou (part of he 2011 line-up as well) at Primavera 2008.
Judging from this clip and the general accolades thrown at Caribou for the live performances this should be a "not-to-miss" gig!
