After the successes of 2006 and 2007, comes the third edition of Summercase.
This coming 18th and 19th of July, Boadilla del Monte in Madrid and the Parc
del Fòrum in Barcelona will once again be transformed into urban epicentres
for the very best in independent music. Already considered a must-see event
on the music festival calendar, Summercase will once more form the ultimate
musical bridge between these two Spanish capitals. Two simultaneous days of
concerts in a young festival which in its first year attracted 55,000 people
and then doubled that with 110,000 second time around. 

 

At the 2006 event, audiences were rocked by sets from classic bands such as
Daft Punk, Massive Attack and New Order and wowed by great artists like
Rufus Wainwright, Adam Green, The Dandy Warhols, The Divine Comedy and the
Happy Mondays. In 2007, it was more of the same, as audiences were treated
to eagerly awaited live sets from Arcade Fire and a solo concert from PJ
Harvey. 2007 was also a year for reunions. Alter long absences, The Jesus
And Mary Chain got together to play live and OMD were with us again,
enjoying the form of their lives. Among the other acts that stuck in
people’s memories were Air, Jarvis Cocker, Scissor Sisters, Bloc Party,
Kaiser Chiefs, The Chemical Brothers, Phoenix, The Flaming Lips, James,
Astrud, LCD Soundsystem, and Sr. Chinarro.

 

For the third consecutive year, Summercase will be able to rely on the
backing of Movistar, which is testimony to their unwavering commitment to
music and young people. A staunch supporter of the festival from the very
beginning, Movistar have been involved in the World of music for more than
nine years, in which time they have sponsored more than 20 concert tours and
supported many different artists.
