Primavera Sound (commonly referred to as simply Primavera) is an annual music festival with the main location in Parc del Fòrum, a park situated directly at the Mediterranean seafront in Barcelona, Spain.
The festival takes place between the end of May and the beginning of June every year since 2001. In addition to the best-known edition in Barcelona, since 2012, Primavera Sound has expanded to Primavera Sound Porto Edition as well. Before 2025, Primavera Sound festivals were organized in several locations outside of Barcelona and Porto; this year, Primavera Tours are scheduled in Madrid and Barcelona in June, July, and September.
I already dedicated one show to Primavera Sound 2025, just before the radio summer break, featuring an interview with Marta Pallarès, Head of Press and Corporate Relations at Primavera Sound, and a selection of songs from female artists who performed at the festival and were my highlights. Check it out here.
In tonight's show, I am going back to Primavera Sound Barcelona 2025 with a different focus.
During Primavera Sound 2025 in Barcelona, I saw many great gigs. Thanks to Instagram being able to host 20 videos per post, I was able to create one post per day, and here they are for day 1, day 2, and day 3. You can also see my reviews via the Gimme a Beat Facebook search.
One of my highlights of the festival was Juana Aguirre, an über-talented Argentinian artist, singer-songwriter, composer, and producer, whose music is a mix of experimental, folk, indie, and Latin American folklore.
I discovered Juana through Primavera's program, and from the moment I discovered her, I didn't stop listening to her. Her music made me feel emotional, happy, sad, and melancholic, all at once. I was excited to finally see her live for the 1st time, and her powerful, intense performance exceeded expectations, effortlessly feeding the souls and minds of the audience who attended it.
A few days before, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Juana for an interview. We talked about her beginnings, her latest album anónimo, how it differs from Claroscuro, her first album, and the music and artists that inspire her.
