8 Standout Sets and Surprises From Coachella

This generation’s pop princess made the most of her first headlining set at Coachella with a full-fledged production of live vocals, choreography and props. From guest stars like Madonna and Terry Crews to a closing water show, “Sabrinawood” was her most ambitious performance to-date, showcasing her growth from the notable “Espresso.”

The artist with perhaps the most eyes on him, Justin Bieber took to the stage with just a laptop and a microphone. Playing his music straight from Youtube, he sang along with the crowd to his songs spanning his 17-year career. This set was for the true Beliebers.

This year, Karol G became the first-ever Latina artist to headline Coachella. Her set was all about Latin pride including salsa, old-school reggaeton and even an all-female mariachi.

This global girl group brought up the voices of HUNTR/X, EJAE, Rei Ami and Audrey Nuna, to sing their award-winning song “Golden.” Making their debut a little under two years ago, KATSEYE is one of the buzziest groups out right now.

Pink Pantheress floated through her signature songs including “Stateside,” “Boy’s a liar Pt. 2” and “Illegal.” The now 25-year-old also celebrated her birthday with special guests like Tyriq Withers, Janelle Monae and Zara Larsson.

The Dutch Eurovision star Joost Klein’s energetic stage presence and hyper-pop led to his crowd doubling across the weekends. His mixes had everyone jumping in unison, creating the ultimate festival atmosphere.

Fans rushed to the stage to witness Olivia’s first performance of her new single, “Drop Dead.” The two pop girls also performed a fun duet of Addison’s “Headphones On.”

Swae Lee took the crowd back to 2016 with “Black Beatles” and the mannequin challenge. Even with guests like French Montana and Slim Jxmmi, his duet with Jhené Aiko stole the show.
