The Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Stone Roses, Blur and Phoenix have been tapped to headline the Coachella Music Festival.
The music festival unveiled its 2013 lineup Thursday night. Other acts that will be making their way to Empire Polo Club in Indio, Calif., are Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Lou Reed, Jurassic 5, Franz Ferdinand, Violent Femmes and Lee Scratch Perry.
As Rolling Stone [4] points out, many of the acts hitting the festival are in the midst of reunion tours or teaming up after a long recording hiatuses to collaborate on new albums. The Stones Roses and New Order have both embarked on reunion tours and Wu-Tang Clan and Phoenix are working on new records.
