PinkPantheress played a star-studded set at the second weekend of Coachella – check out footage and the full setlist below.
The former NME Cover star took to the Mojave Stage at the California festival on Saturday night (April 18), and played a set that saw her being joined by Janelle Monáe, Blood Orange’s Dev Hynes and Zara Larsson.
Monáe played guitar on ‘Another Life’, the opening track of PinkPantheress’ 2023 debut album ‘Heaven Knows’, while Hynes joined on piano for ‘Pain’, from her breakthrough 2021 mixtape ‘To Hell With It’. Larsson, meanwhile, showed up for a performance of PinkPantheress’ remix of her own song ‘Midnight Sun’, the title track of her most recent album.
She also welcomed Reminders Of Him star Tyriq Withers for set opener ‘Romeo’ and closer ‘Illegal’, while One Battle After Another‘s Chase Infiniti also popped up during ‘CSIRAC’.

Her 2025 ‘Fancy That’ mixtape included the song ‘Illegal’, which went on to be named as NME’s song of the year and was described as an “adrenaline-fuelled thrillride” that blends “winking storytelling smarts, artful sampling, cheeky culture-defining quips and dance floor-filling beats”.
When asked by NME why she thought the track had resonated with so many listeners, the producer replied: “I don’t know if it’s anything too deep, other than having a [TikTok] trend for it helped and also the sample is quite timeless. I think the power of the beat itself is what people really like about it.”
She also won the BRIT Award for Producer Of The Year earlier this year, and revealed on TikTok that she produced her song ‘Tonight’ using only her MacBook keyboard.
