Asians and Asian Americans at Coachella made quite a splash this past weekend. Global girl group KATSEYE (missing Manon) performed Golden along with Huntr/X singers, EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami. I loved the harmonies in this version!
BINI, a P-Pop girl group from the Philippines, stoked excitement too. Their presence at Coachella generated some press as well as featured performances in Coachella’s YouTube Channel (Pantropiko performance embedded below). I am amazed to see Filipino faces on the stage, and singing songs in Tagalog no less!
BINI will return for the final weekend of the music festival.
