Madonna to make festival debut
03/1/2006
Madonna will make her festival debut at Coachella in the US in April.
The pop superstar is the latest name to be added to the bill for the event,
which takes place in Indio in the Californian desert.
Madonna will apparently play a full set backed by a live band in the
festival's Sahara Tent, which specialises in dance and electronic music,
reports Billboard.
Speaking about the announcement, she said: "I've never performed at a
festival and I'm especially excited about playing at Coachella before I
start my own tour."
Madonna joins a line-up that already includes headliners Depeche Mode and
Tool and will also feature Daft Punk, Massive Attack, Yeah Yeah Yeahs and
Franz Ferdinand.
Her appearance at Coachella will precede her upcoming world tour, full
details of which are expected to be confirmed shortly.
