Lana Del Rey, Nelly & Sammy Hagar to Headline Stagecoach Festival’s Palomino Stage

This year’s Stagecoach Country Music Festival will feature an eclectic slate of acts leading its Palomino Stage lineup this year, when the festival returns to the Empire Polo Club in Indio, Calif., on April 25-27.

Lana Del Rey, Nelly and Sammy Hagar will headline the stage over the course of the three nights, with Rey heading up the Friday (April 25) lineup, followed by Nelly on Saturday and Rock n’ Roll Hall of Famer Hagar on Sunday.

A promo poster for the fest notes that Del Rey’s Friday night performance will be “a very special country set,” while Nelly’s Saturday performance will celebrate 25 years since the release of his signature song “Country Grammar.”

Also on the Friday night bill are Whiskey Myers, Sierra Ferrell, Nikki Lane, Drake Milligan, Tanner Usrey and Noeline Hofmann.

Del Rey is set to release the country-influenced project The Right Person Will Stay in May. Ferrell picked up four wins at this year’s Grammys, taking home four trophies: best Americana album (Trail of Flowers), best American roots song (“American Dreaming”), best Americana performance (“American Dreaming”) and best American roots performance (“Lighthouse”). Hofmann recently teamed up with Zach Bryan for the song “Purple Gas,” which reached No. 69 on the Billboard Hot 100 last year. Meanwhile, Whiskey Myers recently announced they will team with Tedeschi Trucks Band for a co-headlining tour this year.

Alongside Nelly, Saturday night’s lineup will feature Koe Wetzel, Dylan Gossett, Tommy James & the Shondells, Crystal Gayle, Myles Kennedy and Kashus Culpepper. Wetzel recently notched a multiweek Billboard Country Airplay No. 1 with the Jessie Murph collaboration “High Road’ while the Big Loud Texas/Mercury Records-signed Dylan Gossett is known for songs including “Coal.” Meanwhile, Gayle has earned more than a dozen Hot Country Songs chart-toppers over the years, including signature songs such as 1977’s “Don’t It Make My Brown Eyes Blue” and 1978’s “Talking in Your Sleep.”

The three-day Palomino stage lineup will conclude on Sunday with Hagar as well as performances from “Slide” hitmakers Goo Goo Dolls, as well as eight-time Country Airplay No. 1 hitmaker Tracy Lawrence, and performances from Treaty Oak Revival, The Bacon Brothers, Angel White and Waylon Wyatt.

This year’s main stage headliners will be Jelly Roll, Luke Combs and Zach Bryan, who made his own Palomino Stage debut in 2022. Other artists who have played the Palomino Stage over the years include Merle Haggard, Willie Nelson, George Jones, John Prine, Jerry Lee Lewis, Smokey Robinson, Emmylou Harris, Glen Campbell, Kenny Rogers and Charley Pride.
