Festivals and California go hand in hand. Not only is there always great weather in California, but what artist wouldn't want to appear at a music festival in California?

One of the biggest festivals of the year has to be Coachella, a music festival that is so massive that they decided to hold it over two weekends this year! The line-up for this year includes artists like The Black Keys, Radiohead, David Guetta, Dr Dre & Snoop Dogg, Florence + The Machine plus a whole stack of other great acts.
