Goldfrapp: Sure, for many the legendary IDM duo Goldfrapp needs no introduction. Led by the lovely Alison Goldfrapp, this group has became known over the last decade for their intelligent and sensual electro dance, or as described by BAM organizers “pop with tights and an extra helping of neon.”
Maika Makovksi: BAM is not only one of the most anticipated indie festivals for its international programming, but because it is known for supporting and promoting musical culture in Spain. One of those players in the Spanish indie scene is the Mallorcan rock vocalist Maika Makovski, who will present her third album on the stage at BAM.
El Guincho: Three years ago, Reixa Pablo Diaz, known as El Guincho, swept Spain and the international indie scene with his debut album Alegranza, an exquisite fusion of tropicalia, electronics, pop and dance, which placed him among the largest in the alternative music scene with the likes of Panda Bear and Animal Collective. His new album Black, will surely make you shake your body.
And best of all? Like every year, all the BAM performances are free. So you have no excuses, rent apartments in Barcelona and enjoy the best of national and international indie. For more information on programming, consult:
