\n\tKristin Robinson:<\/strong><\/strong> Coachella is back. The music festival returns to Indio, Calif., this weekend with headline performances from Justin Bieber, Sabrina Carpenter and Karol G. Coachella, however, is more than just a festival \u2014 it\u2019s a bucket-list item for artists of all shapes and sizes, and performances are livestreamed to an audience of millions on YouTube around the world, making it one of the biggest and most impactful stages possible in music. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\tToday, I\u2019m joined by my colleague, Katie Bain. She\u2019s a senior correspondent, director of Billboard Dance and the author of Desert Dreams: The Music, Style, and Allure of Coachella<\/em>, to talk through the history and business behind the big festival. Katie Bain, welcome to On the Record<\/em>.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\tKatie Bain: Thank you so much. Longtime fan, first time caller.<\/p>\n
\n\tI\u2019m so happy to have you here. I love it when I can have my coworkers on and talk about different topics that really pertain to their area of expertise. And so when I knew Coachella was coming up, I was like, \u2018I have to have Katie,\u2019 because, I mean, you have a book, it\u2019s literally right there.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\tCan you see it in the shot?\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tYeah. OK. So Desert Dreams<\/em> came out, what, a few months ago?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\tIt came out in October.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tOctober.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\tYeah.<\/p>\n
\n\tGosh. OK, time flies.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\tIt does.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tOK. So how did you end up getting involved with this book?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\tYeah, so it kind of fell in my lap. The publisher got in touch with me through another podcast I was on, actually about Coachella a few years ago, and they were looking for someone to write a book about Coachella, and I became the guy.<\/p>\n
\n\tOh my gosh, I love that. I love that. So you\u2019re gonna go back to the desert. You\u2019re covering Coachella for us again. You\u2019ve done this many times already, which is a very tough gig, by the way. People don\u2019t know this, but it\u2019s not an easy gig.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\tKeep watching for more!<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nAller \u00e0 la source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Coachella has become the biggest festival in America \u2014 and it rewrote the live music playbook in the process.
