After nearly a decade-long hiatus, the iconic ska/punk/rock band No Doubt is set to make a grand return to the stage, headlining the Coachella 2024 music festival. This much-anticipated reunion promises to be a highlight of the event, stirring excitement among fans across generations.

The big announcement

Goldenvoice, the organizers of Coachella, announced No Doubt's reunion. Frontwoman Gwen Stefani and her bandmates—Tony Kanal, Tom Dumont, and Adrian Young—are all on board for this historic performance. The group, renowned for hits like "Don’t Speak," "Just a Girl," and "Spiderwebs," has not performed together since at least 2015, making this event a milestone in their storied career.

Nostalgia and anticipation

A teaser for the reunion was shared on the No Doubt X page, featuring a video of Stefani reminiscing about the band's early days and culminating in a heartwarming video call with her bandmates. The excitement and affirmative response from the band members underscore the nostalgic and emotional significance of this reunion.

A festival of stars

Coachella 2024, set to unfold over two consecutive weekends in April at Indio's Empire Polo Field, boasts an impressive lineup including Lana Del Rey, Doja Cat, Tyler, The Creator, and other notable artists like Peso Pluma, Ice Spice, Blur, Sublime, and J. Balvin. Last year's event saw performances from global stars like Bad Bunny, Blackpink, and Frank Ocean, with Blink-182 stepping in due to Ocean's injury.
