Spring Sound

Primavera Sound: Barcelona is on fire

1. In the bed: _ Nick Cave. Intimate confessions of a holy sinner _. Matt Snow. The leader of the Bad Seeds and Grinderman opens up the channel in this memoir where his dark pasts in drug dens and low life brought out the lyrics that today flood the best concerts. A raw look at the life of one of the poets of our time. On Saturday he will play at ** Primavera Sound ** with The Bad Seeds at 11:30 p.m. on the Heineken stage.

2.**At the bar: Heliogàbal** (Calle Ramón y Cajal 80, Barcelona ) . Bar and cultural association where you can enjoy the most underground concerts in Barcelona , where to have one with the best company and the best soundtrack, of course, live.

3.Between frames: This is Not a Love Song ( La Virreina Centre, Barcelona ) . With the name of a hit by Public Image Limited, this exhibition is presented within the framework of Primavera Sound. Music and audiovisual go hand in hand. Some video clips are created as pieces of art that complete the musical base and this is how this exhibition was born, which tries to analyze the moments in which music and video feed off each other, when the creators are filled with the pop and rock baggage of the trend music of the moment and the musicians are inspired by art: Andy Warhol, Damien Hirts, Dan Graham , Brian Eno, David Byrne or David Bowie ... United in music.
