A Memorable Coachella Moment

Oklou brought a touch of magic to the Gobi Stage at Coachella 2026 this past Sunday, April 12. During her highly anticipated set, the artist invited several special guests to join her, most notably her collaborator Underscores. The pair performed a captivating rendition of “Harvest Sky,” a standout track from Oklou’s 2025 album Choke Enough. The performance was visually striking, with Oklou commanding the stage from a raised platform while Underscores made a surprise entrance to deliver her vocal contributions.

Expanding the Performance

This year’s festival marked a significant milestone for Oklou, as it was her first time performing a full set at the iconic desert festival. While she previously made a brief guest appearance during Flume’s 2022 set to perform “Highest Building,” her 2026 performance allowed her to showcase the full breadth of her artistry. The set was further elevated by the inclusion of Casey MQ, who joined her for a performance of “Take Me By the Hand.”

Underscores, who has been carving out her own path in the alternative pop scene, was no stranger to the Coachella stage. Having made her own festival debut last year with a full set, her return as a guest highlighted the collaborative spirit that defines much of the current music landscape.

Continued Momentum

The performance served as a celebration of Oklou’s recent work. Following the release of Choke Enough in early 2025, she continued to build on that momentum with a deluxe version of the album released later that fall. That expanded project featured the FKA twigs collaboration “Viscus,” further cementing Oklou’s reputation as a forward-thinking producer and songwriter.

For those looking to dive deeper into her creative process, her previous cover story, Oklou’s Endless Summer, remains an essential read. As Coachella 2026 continues, fans can keep up with all the latest developments through our ongoing coverage of the festival.
