The Coachella festival organizers announced Ed Sheeran and Weezer as last-minute additions to the lineup. Fans were thrilled by these latest additions and are waiting for Coachella 2025.
The organizers revealed these two acts as part of this year's shows on April 5 when they released the set times. Weezer, the famous rock band, will play at the Mojave tent on April 12, 2025, at 3:10 pm. The band plans to deliver a lively show of their classic songs during their 45-minute set.
Weezer's official Instagram account posted the full Coachella 2025 lineup along with the caption:
"A desert surprise see you at @coachella on the Mojave stage next Saturday @ 3:10."
Ed Sheeran, the famous singer and songwriter, will perform on April 19, 2025, at 3 pm in the same Mojave tent, with a one-hour set. These additions make the festival's lineup seem packed with stars. There are many iconic musicians scheduled to appear as well.
Lady Gaga, Green Day, Travis Scott, and Post Malone will headline Coachella 2025. They will offer a diverse mix of musical styles and genres across the two weekends. The list also includes Charli XCX, Zedd, Missy Elliott, and Megan Thee Stallion.
Weezer's signature sound and music style
Weezer is a band that was formed in California in 1992. The main members in the band are Rivers Cuomo, Patrick Wilson, Brian Bell, and Scott Shriner.
Fans love the band's music for its loud guitars, catchy tunes, and geeky vibe. The band's style mixes big rock sounds with guitar riffs, adding a touch of '70s metal. They keep a guitar-driven sound with a steady, danceable rhythm.
According to Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic, the Weezer's style
"merges the heavy power pop of arena rockers like Cheap Trick and the angular guitar leads of the Pixies while injecting their melodies with doses of '70s metal."
This unique combination of music gained them a lot of fans. The band has maintained a heavy, guitar-oriented sound over a steady, danceable groove throughout their career.
Weezer’s performance schedule and unexpected lineup changes at Coachella 2025
There were some unexpected lineup changes at the time of the lineup announcement. Brazilian pop star Anitta withdrew for personal reasons, and British singer FKA Twigs had to cancel her show because of visa problems. However, the addition of Sheeran and Weezer offset these withdrawals, maintaining fan excitement. The Weezer performance will take place on April 12, 2025, at 3:10 pm.
Legendary punk rock band Green Day will play on Saturdays, April 12 and 19, bringing their trademark enthusiastic show to Coachella's main stage. After appearances by Megan Thee Stallion, Ty Dolla $ign, and others, Post Malone will be the main attraction on Sundays, April 13 and 20.
