The Strokes, the Beta Band, the Charlatans U.K., Elbow, Zero 7, and Pete Yorn are among the artists that have been added to the lineup for the third Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival, to be held April 27-28 in Indio, Calif. Among the other newly confirmed acts are Cake, Pharcyde, KRS-One, Cornershop, BT, Saves The Day, Blonde Redhead, and Cut Chemist. They join previously announced headliners Bjork (April 27) and Oasis (April 28), as well as Foo Fighters, the Prodigy, Chemical Brothers, Paul Oakenfold, and Mos Def, among many others. More acts are expected to be added.
"We believe that we have created a true spirit with this festival," says Paul Tollett of show promoter Goldenvoice. "This year's line-up includes artists who've performed here before and they've told us that this festival offers them the chance to perform for serious music fans in a good vibes atmosphere. We've got a great location with panoramic views, amazing sunsets, and nice weather."
Tickets go on sale Saturday (March 2) via Ticketmaster. Single-day tickets are $75; a limited-amount of two-day tickets will be available for $125. The event will be sponsored this year by Heineken, Virgin Megastore, and Playstation 2.
