Shakeup: Earlier this month, it was announced that The Weeknd (seen at the Super Bowl in February 2021) along with Swedish House Mafia will replace headliner Kanye West on Sunday night.
SUNDAY EVENING: The Weeknd and Swedish House Mafia
This year’s lineup of Coachella includes a huge change, as it was announced earlier this month that The Weekend together with the Swedish House Mafia will replace the headliner on Sunday night Kanye West.
The Weeknd and the house music group – consisting of Axwell, Steve Angello and Sebastian Ingrosso – have a working relationship as they collaborated on the hit song Moth To A Flame together and also have the same SALXCO management team.
It remains unclear how the headlining concert will work, which means whether one will play after the other or be excluded, but sources said that part of The Weeknd will probably be shorter, given the time constraints to prepare for the show.
This will also be the big return of the Swedish House Mafia to the hugely popular music festival, as they have not participated in it since 2012, as they disbanded in 2013 at their absolute peak of popularity.
The Weeknd first appeared on the Coachella stage in 2012, and then three years later in 2015. He officially co-led the festival in 2018 with Beyoncé and rapper Eminem.
No longer a bad person: Only 20 years old, Billy Isle (seen performing in Ingleud earlier this month) is one of the world’s biggest pop stars and will be the headliner on Day 2 of the hugely popular festival.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Billy Ailish
At just 20 years old, Billy Isle is one of the biggest pop stars in the world and will be the headliner on Day 2 of the hugely popular festival.
She played at Coachella once again in 2019 (the last time the festival was held due to a delay related to COVID-19), which was not one of her highlights, as she started her set with 40 minutes late, she forgot the lyrics of her songs, and even stumbled on stage.
Ailish told V Magazine last month about the ordeal of one of the biggest stages of her career, saying: “I’m really outraged by the things that surround me during this time. I ruined this for me from a man, but it’s good.
She did not further clarify who this man was, but based on scenes from her 2021 documentary The World’s A Little Blurry, she may be referring to then-boyfriend Brandon Adams.
The Los Angeles-born man may be relatively young, but he is a veteran of the music industry, as he first attracted public attention at the age of 13 with his debut single Ocean Eyes.
She, along with her older brother and fellow artist known as FINNEAS, has become one of the greatest performers in music with several hits at the top of the charts and awards, including seven Grammy Awards, two American Music Awards, two World Awards the Guinness World Record, three MTV Video Music Awards, three Brit Awards, a Golden Globe Award and even an Oscar.
What a debut! This will be the first time Harry Styles (seen performing at The Brit Awards in London in February) has ever performed at Coachella and this is a headliner concert.
FRIDAY NIGHT: Harry Styles
This will be the first time Harry Styles has participated in Coachella and is the headliner.
Olivia Wilde’s 28-year-old boyfriend has had a very successful solo career after being part of one of the best-selling boy bands of all time in One Direction.
The British artist’s musical career began in 2010 as a soloist in the British reality singing show X Factor, after he was returned to join the singing group after his elimination.
After the band disbanded in 2016, he released a self-titled solo album through Columbia Records, which debuted at number one in the UK and US in 2017.
His second album, entitled Fine Line, was released in 2019 and also debuted at the top of the charts with the biggest sales for the first week by an English male artist in the history of the charts.
Later this year, Stiles will release his third full-length album, Harry’s House, after releasing a single earlier this month that topped the As It Was chart to move the release.
