Pitchfork continues its coverage of the Primavera Sound Festival in Barcelona with Day 3 reviews and photos; Grizzly Bear apparently got a weak reaction…
Primavera Sound Festival [Saturday] [Pitchfork]
But after “Two Weeks”, which surprisingly came in the middle of the set, the pace dwindled, and audience members began filing out early. On quieter numbers like “Ready, Able”, it became frustratingly difficult to hear the music over the chattering crowd, and I began to wish I were in a smaller club a little more suited to Grizzly Bear’s intimate baroque style.
I wonder how the crowd at Nateva is going to react.
The inaugural Nateva Festival set for the Fourth of July weekend in Maine is really shaping up to be a premier event. The following artists have been added to the lineup:
She & Him, Passion Pit, Grizzly Bear, Drive-By Truckers, Ghostland Observatory, Jackie Greene, Jakob Dylan & Three Legs, Crash Kings, Mark Karan’s Jemimah Puddleduck, Rustic Overtones, Lettuce, Gypsy Tailwind, EOTO, Big Gigantic, The Brew, The Constellations, Toubab Krewe, The Indobox, Roots of Creation, Bow Thayer & Perfect Trainwreck, Nate Wilson Group, The Alchemystics, The Kind Buds, Adam Ezra Group, The McLovins, The Heavy Pets, Nephrok! Allstars, You Can Be a Wesley, Billy Keane and the Misdemeanor Outlaws, Brenda, The Mallet Brothers, Grand Hotel, Magic Magic, and Mudseason.

Grizzly Bear was at the House of Blues in Chicago this weekend to record a Sound Opinions show, and some of my old pals were in attendance…
These guys just look like regular hipsters from Brooklyn, but when they open their mouths to sing it was like angels – beautiful voices with lots of harmonizing…The band was late and I think it was a bit of a rush to get the questions and songs in. And Grizzly Bear only sang 3 songs. But there were only about 30 people in the audience.. so basically, Grizzly Bear did a private show for a super small crowd.
My favorite song off Veckatimest gets the royal treatment on the Late Show with David Letterman. He seriously killed it with the musical guests last week.
