The Sónar organization has announced Lana Del Rey as part of its line-up in the 2012 edition. With a single disc, Born To Die, released last January, Lana (formerly known as Lizzie Grant) has revolutionized the international market, winning supporters and enemies alike. Although everything must be said, it is not known for sure how much fault the media have had in raising the artist to fame with an album that is not the bomb we say either.
His ability to sell is unquestionable, as well as that magnetism with a certain retro air that has placed him in a successful limbo between indie and mainstream in record time. Adored by Pitchfork, King's wool no one of his strong points live. In fact, we have seen her in front of the microphone on a few occasions.
Especially sounded was his passage on American television in the program Saturday Night Live. Criticism rained down on this young singer with a deep voice and full lips, who will not only go to Sónar 2012, but is also one of the confirmed artists for this edition of the prestigious SXSW festival.
In addition to Lana Del Rey, we remember that they will participate this year at Sónar (June 14-16, Barcelona) The Roots, Modeselector, Hot Chip, John Paul Jones, James blake dj, Fatboy Slim, Richie Hawtin, Thundercat, Austra, Deadmau5, Nicolas Jaar, Friendly Fire, Metronomy or John talabot.
