ATHENS, GA–Pylon Reenactment Society will make their European debut in at the Primavera Sound Festival in Barcelona, Spain, on Thursday, May 30, 2019.

Pylon Reenactment Society is fronted by former Pylon front woman Vanessa Briscoe Hay, whose inimitable vocal textures and phrasing define Pylon’s sound for most listeners. Pylon is considered to be one of the most influential bands at the beginnings of what would become known as the “Athens, GA music scene.” Over 30 years ago, Pylon, along with The B-52’s and R.E.M., were heavily featured in the original feature documentary, “Athens, GA: Inside/Out” propelling them into the international spotlight, yet Pylon performed only in the U.K. in 1980 but never performed on the mainland of Europe.
