Coachella By The Numbers

Coachella Chart Graph YouTube bands Who should really be headlining

Just who exactly are the 128 bands playing Coachella this year, collectively? As one big amalgam, what are they? LA Weekly’s music blog, Play, has crunched all of the data on the bands scheduled in the music fest’s 2008 lineup and cranked out some interesting charts and graphs. (Don’t you just love when Excel spreadsheets and indie rock overlap?) The results are a revealing look at Coachella’s artists based on gender of lead singer, ethnicity of artists, YouTube hits, Pitchfork ratings, Country of origin, region of the US from which the act hails, etc.
