ANAHEIM, Calif. — Los Angeles-based indie rock band Wallows is determined to make its weekend appearances at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio this month memorable ones.
Back in 2019, the trio performed on the smaller Mojave stage in the blistering heat at 1:30 p.m. to a decent-size crowd, but guitarist-vocalist Braeden Lemasters said that behind the scenes, just about everything that could go wrong did.
“Not only was that our first time playing Coachella, but it was the first show of that tour and our first time using in-ear monitors,” he said during a recent Zoom interview along with guitarist-vocalist Dylan Minnette and drummer Cole Preston from a hotel room in Boston, where they were finishing up tour production rehearsals late last month.
