• Coachella 2026 Lineup Breakdown

  Coachella's 2026 lineup is here and we've got thoughts. All three headliners are pop stars for the first time in Coachella history, but Goldenvoice's punk roots are still well represented. Past headliners The Strokes are now one slot below Justin Bieber. The xx are back. Will Clipse have big guests? Are Nine Inch Nails doing a full EDM set with Boys Noize? What exactly is Bob Baker Marionettes? And what's up with that weird Radiohead thing? All this and more on the new episode of BV Weekly.   Full Coachella 2026 lineup here: https://www.brooklynvegan.com/coachella-2026-lineup-sabrina-carpenter-nin-boys-noize-turnstile-the-strokes-the-xx-more/   Email [email protected] with any feedback or questions!  Visit BrooklynVegan: https://www.brooklynvegan.com/ And Visit Our Shop: https://shop.brooklynvegan.com/ ** Credits: BV Weekly is brought to you by the long-running music publication BrooklynVegan, created and hosted by Dave Levine and Andrew Sacher Theme Song: Joseph D’Agostino (Empty Country, Cymbals Eat Guitars) Mix engineer: Nick Gray
