It was Blur’s first efficiency at Coachella since 2013

Blur took the stage at Coachella on Saturday, and to shut out their portion of the evening, they introduced out performers from the Torres Martinez Cahuilla Bird Singers.
It was Blur’s first time at Coachella since 2013 (although Damon Albarn has made just a few shock appearances in recent years), and the band delivered renditions of a few of their most beloved songs, like “Song 2,” “Girls & Boys,” “Beetlebum,” and extra.
The Britpop legends first introduced out a gaggle of Bird Singers to carry out a conventional piece titled “Bird Song,” honoring the tradition and historical past of the indigenous tribes of the Coachella area. From there, the Bird Singers loaned their voices to Blur’s “Death of a Party,” after which returned on the finish of the evening to shut out the set with “Tender.”
Elsewhere in Blur’s set, Albarn made an enchantment for mutual understanding in a time of political polarization, and commented on how the fields Coachella is hosted on sometimes host polo matches, resulting in a short apart concerning the historical past of Paraguay.
Watch movies of the efficiency beneath.

Very cool to see the Cahuilla fowl singers be a part of Damon and Blur at Coachella. They’re one of many unique indigenous tribes of the Coachella area — and really energetic right now — so it’s cool to see them represented to the broader world watching at home. #couchella pic.twitter.com/7INTx8gguZ
