Current Confirmed Artists For Coachella 2017

Only a handful of months are left until one of the most iconic music festivals in the world opens its gates for round 16. For those lucky enough to make the pilgrimage to the two sacred weekends, they can rest easy knowing they drained their bank accounts for a lineup that is shaping up pretty nicely so far. And while the official lineup has not been put out yet, fans on the official forum threads have been hard at work weighing artists and their confirmed schedules and to compile some pretty nice looking \”potential schedules\” like the one below.

While many lists are swirling around, I\’ve decided to take the time and post what artists I\’ve found through my research and CONCRETE PROOF stating their performing at Coachella, whether that\’s the artist saying it themselves, or \”insiders\” saying the artist with a noticeable gap in their tour schedule. Note that while my list will be shorter than most, it is concrete, given I actually went through and scoured reddit, press articles and forums to find proof for every name on all these so called \”confirmed\” lists. After all, most people say whatever they want when it comes to these rumors and literally anyone can make a thread titled \”DJ Henzel Sole Headliner of Coachella\” and somehow catch steam. Anywho, without any further delay…

Yes, They\’re Going

Bonobo
Proof – Recent press release with Vogue

DJ Khaled
Proof – Personal Snapchat

The Shins
Proof – They\’re releasing their album early to book Coachella

Chic
Proof – I mean…can you refute this?

Warpaint
Proof – Just a lot of random confirmations

DJ Snake
Proof – He said so, before quickly swiping it off the internet and snapchat. Thankfully, some screenshots were taken.

Kiiara
Proof – lol

Rae Srummurd
Proof – Apparently someone spoke to their manager on the message boards. I couldn\’t find the thread but the references are throughout reddit and the official forums. *This is me slacking off*

STRFKR
Proof – ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

The High Probability Rumors

Martin Garrix
Proof – This interview claims he\’s very interested

Justice, The XX, Big Gigantic, Tycho
Proof – Some reddit \”insider\”, but looking at their tour dates and the noticeable gaps in the April region…seems legit…ish

Beyonce, Kendrick Lamar, Radiohead
Proof – There isn\’t really substantial proof outside of this article. The rumors around the internet are huge with these three, but no one has come out saying they spoke to Thom, Kendrick or Bey or any of their personnel. Granted, their schedules are open around that time, but that alone usually isn\’t enough to get a cold confirmation…

Local Natives
Proof – \”A redditor says…\” plus tour dates have a fatty gap between shows. Coincidence?

Alt-J, Grouplove, Kaleo
Proof – \”You don\’t have to believe me, but the industry says so.\” Along with personal accounts in comments. Meh…

Anyone other than the guys I just listed is either wishful thinking from someone somewhere or the artist was really good at clearing out any claims online. And with that said, here\’s one of the lists I worked off of to let your imaginations run wild with.
