The weather outside’s proper horrid, so here’s something to daydream about, warm yourselves: more acts have been confirmed for this summer’s Primavera Sound festival in Barcelona.

The event takes place in the Parc del Forum from the 29th ‘til the 31st of May and many Drowned in Sound ‘faves’ old and new stand among the latest draft, including those Primavera-loving boys from Deerhunter, Les Savy Fav and Portishead.

Additions:

Deerhunter
Edan and MC Dagha
Les Savy Fav
MV & EE with the Golden Road
Pissed Jeans
Portishead
Silver Jews
Six Organs of Admittance

Those acts will join the likes of Scout Niblett, Clipse and Okkervil River, who were previously announced here in December.

Tickets for the festival, which are obligatory if you’re reading this, are still on sale at the very reasonable, early-bird price of €85, plus booking fee. Find them here.
