Pitchfork Paris 2019 is just weeks away from kicking off, and they've announced AJ Tracey as a last-minute addition to this year's lineup.

AJ Tracey will join Skepta, The 1975, Charli XCX, Mura Masa, Flohio, Chromatics, Belle and Sebastian, Jessica Pratt, Kojey Radical, AURORA, CHAI, Squid, Primal Scream, and many others.

The rapper's new festival slot arrives hot on the heels of his new single "Cat Pack" that dropped last week, and will feature on the deluxe edition of his 2018 debut album.

Pitchfork Paris will see 50 artists perform at Paris' Grande Halle de La Villette.

Adam Krefman, executive director of festivals at Pitchfork says, "This year represents growth and evolution for the festival. With nearly double the artists, and the utilization of new parts of La Grande Halle, we’re looking forward to making space for more rising talent - some of whom European fans might not otherwise get to see perform. It is an honor to continue to call Paris home, and to continue this global collaboration."

Pitchfork Paris 2019 takes place at the Grande Halle de La Villette from 31 October to 2 November. Tickets are on sale now.
