PJ Harvey gave fans at the Primavera Sound festival in Barcelona, Spain, a pleasant surprise when she “live debuted” “Black Hearted Love,” a song she had only performed once before for a special from Abbey Road Studios in 2009.
Technically that 2009 performance was the the live debut, but this weekend was the first time she played it in front of a paying audience, many of whom might not have heard it before at all because the fest was headlined by Lana Del Rey, Pulp, and SZA.
What a song those Spaniards got to hear and see.
Over 25 years ago PJ and musician John Parish began a collaboration that would result in two moody and delightful records, Dance Hall at Louse Point (1996) and A Woman A Man Walked By (2009).
