Coachella

After being cancelled for 2 years in a row due to COVID, Coachella is set to return in 2022.

According to two industry sources, Coachella is giving up on 2021 and looking towards 2022 for its next edition.

Not that anyone thought it was going to happen this spring, but the April dates for Coachella 2021 have been officially canceled by Riverside County.

Some footage of the iconic reunion set was featured in the recent Coachella documentary, and now a high-quality recording of their entire set was released on streaming services...

Meanwhile, there are more indications that Coachella has been postponed until at least the fall.

The new song was written especially for the composer and former Oingo Boingo frontman's 2020 Coachella performance, that ended up not happening due to the pandemic, and the video was made by Bjork and Arca collaborator Jesse Kanda.

"I originally wrote “Happy” to perform at Coachella 2020. It was written to be an absurd anti-pop song, designed to begin as a very simple pop tune that degrades into something more subversive. The cynical nature of the lyrics echo how I feel about living in a semi-dystopian world…

It looks like Coachella won't be returning to Indio in April of 2021 after all...

Sonic Youth, Einstürzende Neubauten, The Minutemen, Meat Puppets and more feature in this documentary about a creative collective who put on wild, very DIY shows in the California desert in the mid-'80s.

”This is not the future that any of us hoped to confront, but our main focus remains the well-being of our fans, staff, artists, desert partners and everyone involved in the festival,” Coachella writes.
