DESERT SAGE:
PAUL TOLLETT

Paul Tollett, who graces the contents page of our first print edition of 2024, is once again in the spotlight as talk turns to Goldenvoice/AEG’s Coachella, the king of music festivals and a trending topic throughout the culture every single year. This year's headliners include Tyler, The Creator, Doja Cat and Lana Del Rey, plus surprise performers No Doubt.

Tollett will follow Coachella’s two high-profile weekends with another star-studded desert gathering, Stagecoach, which continues to increase its influence and importance thanks to the growth of country music and various roots forms. Paul has no problem feeling comfortable in the Indio sun, but we are undoubtedly the last kind of sand he wants in his shoes.
