Koe Wetzel Says Coachella Was 'Crazy,' Promises 'An Hour Of Chaos' At Stagecoach
Country-rocker is still riding high from his explosive debut, and he's already promising fans even more chaos at Stagecoach. Wetzel joined rising star Jessie Murph on stage at Coachella for a surprise performance of their hit duet 'High Road,' sending the crowd into a frenzy. The appearance marked Koe Wetzel's first time at the iconic festival, and from the sound of it, it won't be his last. Murph had an impressive lineup of music, including her hits "Cowboys and Angels," "Gucci Mane," Wild Ones," "How Could You," "It Ain't Right," and more, but the surprise was when she brought out Wetzel to sing their hit song, "High Road," live. 'Coachella was great! It was my first time out there," Wetzel said during a press conference at Raising Cane's when The Blast asked about his time at the popular festival. "I played 'High Road' with Jessie. The vibes were great and it was crazy. We enjoyed every minute." Funny enough, Graves was also at Coachella the same day and they had no idea they were both there! 'You were there?' Graves asked Wetzel. 'Weekend one? What day did you perform?' Wetzel clarified he took the stage on Sunday, to which Graves said, 'How did I not know you were there?! That's wild.' In addition to Coachella, the crowd at Stagecoach better brace themselves because Wetzel said, "I'm excited about Stagecoach, too. It's gonna be an hour of chaos!' Wetzel also reflected on how country music is evolving and embracing new sounds. 'Country music is such a big genre now with so many people like Hardy, Morgan [Wallen], Post [Malone], Zach Top, and many others, and it's great because we're hearing all angles and styles of music,' said Wetzel. 'It's a cool time for country music and music in general.' The collaboration between Wetzel and Murph has already proven to be a career-defining move. 'High Road' became the pair's first No. 1 single at country radio last year, despite some initial fan pushback when the duet version was released after Wetzel first teased it as a solo track. Still, the numbers don't lie. The song topped the charts for several weeks, and Wetzel stood by the decision to release it as a duet. He's even credited Jessie Murph for elevating the track: fans, it seems, eventually agreed. Koe and Jessie's Coachella moment only solidified the song's success, and with Stagecoach just around the corner, Wetzel is ready to raise even more hell. Elsewhere in the press conference, Koe Wetzel discussed his recent collaboration with his longtime friend, Raising Cane's founder Todd Graves, to enter the fast-food world with a healthy dose of humor and mischief. 'Todd and I share a love for the outdoors and many common interests. We like to get out there and have a good time and have some great memories together,' the country music star said of his friendship with the Raising Cane's CEO. 'Todd is a great guy and does so much for so many people, so we get along well. I'm very happy to be part of the Raising Cane's family.' 'I've always been a big fan of Koe's music and love that he hasn't changed his style over the years. He continues to do it his way and is highly respected in the country music community and throughout Nashville by artists of all sizes,' Graves said of the country music singer. 'Koe and I first got together when I invited him to the Cane's suite for Super Bowl LVI at SoFi and we had a great time." Graves continued, "He's a genuine person who has determination, passion and a vision for his music, and that's one of the things I love most about him. I get inspired by people who are out there doing things and chasing their dreams and Koe and I have that in common and so much more.' Then came the difficult question: 'Who would last longer if Todd and Koe switched jobs for a day?" "That's a toss-up!' Wetzel said with a laugh. 'But the first thing I would do as a crewmember is rename the Caniac Combo to the Koeniac Combo for February 28.'
