About Stagecoach 2026
Stagecoach is Goldenvoice's country weekend on the same Empire Polo Club turf as Coachella, and the 2026 edition ran April 24–26 with Cody Johnson, Lainey Wilson and Post Malone atop the bill: a Texas neotraditionalist, the format's reigning awards magnet, and a genre-hopping superstar a few years into a country turn that stuck.
The undercard mapped where mainstream country actually sits. Brooks & Dunn, Wynonna Judd and Lyle Lovett held down the legacy wing; Bailey Zimmerman, Riley Green and Ella Langley carried the radio present; and Stagecoach's rock-crossover tradition ran deep, with Journey, Counting Crows, Bush, Third Eye Blind and Hootie & the Blowfish all on a country bill, alongside true wild cards like Dallas rapper BigXthaPlug and soul shouter Teddy Swims.
Expect country, pop, roots rock and alt-rock across 44 acts.

The best-selling duo in country history, whose 'Neon Moon' and 'Boot Scootin' Boogie' still run every honky-tonk floor in America.
Country
Gavin Rossdale's post-grunge outfit, whose mid-'90s singles have aged into genuine festival-crowd catnip, as 'Glycerine' and 'Machinehead' still land like it's 1995.

Four-part harmony institution, with 'Girl Crush' and 'Boondocks' bookending two decades of country vocal-group craft.

Semi-charmed alt-rock perfection: a greatest-hits set with no skips, doot-doot-doots at maximum participation, Jenkins still selling every word.

Alt-countryIndie-pop
Michigan-raised Nashville songwriter who spent years writing hits for other people, including Blake Shelton's 'Lonely Tonight', before stepping out as a singer himself.
Country
Greenville, South Carolina bandleader who sings and plays guitar with a weight well beyond his years, playing blues-rock rooted in Southern soul rather than revivalism.
Rock
Jakob Dylan's long-running roots-rock outfit, still built on the organ-swelled craft that carried 'One Headlight' across the mid-'90s.

The headliners
Cody Johnson · Texas rodeo-cowboy-turned-arena-headliner: neotraditional country sung like every night is the last night of the season.
Lainey Wilson · Bell-bottoms, Louisiana drawl and a run of CMA hardware make her the hardest-working woman in mainstream country right now, with the catalog to back the swagger.
Post Malone · Genre-agnostic hitmaker, the face-tattooed everyman who moved from melodic rap to a full country turn without dropping a step.
Up-and-comers to catch early
Wyatt Flores · The red-dirt class's fastest riser writes like a journal entry, and the crowds already sing every word back.
Ella Langley · The sass is the hook, but the writing underneath is what's built to last.
Max McNown · A softer, Pacific-Northwest take on country: less twang, more campfire.
Ty Myers · A Texas teenager with an old-soul croon, one of the youngest names on the bill and among the most talked about.
Avery Anna · Gen-Z heartbreak country: turned a bedroom-clip following into a real Nashville career.
Hudson Westbrook · Texas-country newcomer working the same college-town circuit that built the last wave of red-dirt stars.
Other acts worth planning around

Journey · Stagecoach's rock-legacy slot at maximum wattage: an entire polo field on the last chorus.
BigXthaPlug · The bill's boldest swing: Texas rap in front of a country crowd, and it made perfect sense.
Teddy Swims · That voice carrying across an open desert field was its own argument for showing up early.
Wynonna Judd · Country royalty with a blues shout, a voice that belongs to no production era.
Charles Wesley Godwin · The quiet counterweight: Appalachian storytelling that can hush a festival crowd.
Larkin Poe · Slide-guitar sisters bringing genuine blues-rock crunch to the weekend.
