The Primavera Sound festival has revealed its 2013 line-up, with the returning Postal Service and Blur both set for appearances at the Barcelona event.
The Postal Service have recently announced their intention to reissue the 2003 debut album ‘Give Up‘ on its tenth anniversary, and are also strongly rumoured to be playing Coachella in April, but this marks one of the first official news items confirming the duo – consisting of Death Cab For Cutie‘s Benjamin Gibbard and DNTEL‘s Jimmy Tamborello – are making a live return.
Meanwhile, the line-up’s unveiling adds to what is proving to be a busy period of European festival visits for Blur, while the likes of Animal Collective, My Bloody Valentine, Tame Impala, Band Of Horses, Grizzly Bear and The Vaccines have also been booked.
