If you’ve been scrolling through the news, playlists, and social media reactions, you’ll notice one thing: the artists talking the loudest are the ones who can sing and perform live with presence, range, and control. That isn’t something they luck into. It comes from serious training. And that can start right here in Glasgow.
Why Coachella’s Lineup Matters for Aspiring Singers
Diverse Styles, Demanding Techniques: The 2026 poster spans pop, R&B, indie, alternative, electronic — each genre has different vocal demands. The ones who stand out are those who can adapt without losing authenticity. Pitchfork+1
Live Performance Feet: Expectation vs Reality: Festivals are live proof that you need stamina, stage presence, pitch control, and dynamic range. What sounds good in a studio has to hold up on a big stage, outdoors, with acoustics, crowd, and pressure.
Viral Potential & Exposure: When an artist nails a performance at Coachella, clips go viral. Vocally strong moments become shared moments. If you’re prepared, your voice can be part of those shared moments — whether you’re singing covers, uploading performances, or performing live.

What to Do Now If You’re Serious About Voice Growth
Pick a few Coachella artists whose voice you admire (say, Sabrina, Justin, Karol G). Listen carefully: how they transition between registers, how they use dynamics (soft vs loud), how they phrase.
Record yourself singing a cover of one of their songs. Listen back — note where your voice feels strained, where you're losing pitch, where you run out of breath.
Find a teacher (one-to-one best) who can help you work on the weak spots with technique suited to your current level.
Be consistent. Progress in singing comes with regular practice, good technique, and incremental growth.
If Coachella 2026 has got you hyped, channel that energy into your own voice. Because whether or not you get on a festival stage, your voice deserves to be heard clearly, powerfully, and truthfully.
