Coachella adds Gudfella

Gudfella is set to play Coachella’s Weekend 2 on the Do LaB stage, adding a fast-rising house music name to the festival’s second weekend. (nationaltoday.com) The artist performs under the name Gudfella, and reports identify him as Kyle Domingo, a DJ and producer born in Cebu and now based in Los Angeles. National Today said the booking is for Weekend 2, which runs April 17 to April 19, 2026. (nationaltoday.com) Coachella’s official festival information says both weekends carry the same lineup, while set times can still change. The festival lists its 2026 dates as April 10 to April 12 and April 17 to April 19 in Indio, California. (coachella.com) Do LaB is not Coachella’s main stage bill; it is one of the festival’s branded venues inside the grounds, and Coachella’s site tells fans to “check out both weekend lineups now.” That makes the booking part of the festival’s broader side-stage ecosystem, where electronic acts often break out to larger audiences. (coachella.com) Gudfella arrives with a streaming profile that is already large enough to matter at a festival built on discovery. Spotify’s artist page shows him at about 1 million monthly listeners, while National Today reported more than 1.5 million on April 13, suggesting his audience has been climbing quickly. (open.spotify.com) (nationaltoday.com) A music analytics profile tracked a sharp jump at the end of March, saying Gudfella added 105,262 Spotify monthly listeners on March 30, a 103.2% increase over his usual growth. That kind of spike often signals a track, clip, or festival announcement pushing an artist beyond club audiences. (chartmetric.com) His own website says he has passed 113 million accumulated streams and has played venues including Club Space and Brooklyn Mirage. The same bio now lists Coachella among those stages, indicating the festival slot is already central to how his team is presenting him. (gudfella.com) For Coachella, the timing is practical as well as symbolic: the festival says 2026 passes are sold out, and its livestream page says seven stages will stream live across both weekends on YouTube. That gives an artist on a secondary stage a path to reach far beyond the crowd standing in front of the booth. (coachella.com 1) (coachella.com 2) Weekend 2 begins April 17, and Coachella says fans should use the festival app for the latest schedule updates. For Gudfella, the next measure is simple: whether a Do LaB set in the desert turns streaming momentum into a bigger festival foothold. (coachella.com)
