The NYC band were forced to pull out of the Spanish festival due to a COVID case in their ranks.

June 03, 2022

Primavera Sound is taking place in Barcelona, Spain this weekend with a stacked line-up and more than a few complaints about conditions on the festival site. The impressive bill took a slight hit earlier this week when Friday night headliners The Strokes were forced to pull out after a bout of COVID-19 in their camp. Tame Impala, playing on the Thursday night, did their bit to help the dissapointment by covering the NYC band's indie sleaze classic "Last Nite" during their set. Check out footage from the show below.

In addition to Primavera, The Strokes have also canceled their appearances at Boston Calling and a rally for Chicago-area Congressional hopeful Kina Collins due to the COVID outbreak. The latter has been rescheduled for June 17. Tame Impala's Kevin Parker, meanwhile, recently shared a new collaboration with Diana Ross. "Turn Up The Sunshine" will appear on the soundtrack to upcoming kids movie, Minions: Rise of Gru.
