 ATARASHII GAKKO! (AG!) will return to the 2027 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, performing on Friday, April 9 and Friday, April 16.  The return to Coachella marks a historic milestone as ATARASHII GAKKO! becomes the first Japanese female group to play the festival in two separate years. Their 2024 debut, headlining the Gobi tent, left an indelible impression on festivalgoers, many of whom were experiencing the group’s trailblazing live show for the first time. Three years and a global tour later, they return bigger and bolder than ever. 

On their Coachella news, ATARASHII GAKKO! share, “WE SCREAMED. The world we experienced at Coachella in 2024 is seared into our memories forever. A second appearance felt almost impossible, but we never stopped believing it could happen. After touring the world and making our new album From Tokyo with Love, we’ve grown stronger, richer, and bolder than ever. Now, we’re diving headfirst into Coachella once again! We’re so excited we can hardly contain ourselves. We’re going to push past the limits of youth!”

ATARASHII GAKKO!’s 2024 Coachella sets wowed crowds with B-Sides raving they “brought the house down in the Gobi tent Sunday night. The Luna Collective praised their debut saying they “redefine what it means to be a female idol. Their choreography, self-created and fiercely energetic, blends elements of Japanese butoh dance, headbanging metal, and hip-hop street style. Musically, AG! is a sonic playground, seamlessly weaving together modern J-Pop, Showa-era kayokyoku, rap, punk, and dance.” Just recently, ATARASHII GAKKO!’s September Bumbershoot Festival performance was a must-see set with The Seattle Times including it in their Best Of recap saying, “the irresistibly fun quartet transcended language barriers, bending and blending girl group conventions and choreography with songs ranging from new wavey electro-pop to full-throttle hardstyle.” 

ATARASHII GAKKO! have been on the move for a whirlwind 2026 with a new album, global touring and consistently building buzz. Watch their latest music video “TTTTOKYO,” directed by Mackenzie Sheppard HERE.  Picking up where their global favorite “Tokyo Calling” left off, “TTTTOKYO” is featured on their trailblazing fourth studio album From Tokyo with Love released via 88rising. They also released the music video for “Oi AG!” [Watch HERE] and delivered an unforgettable European tour which included Colours of Ostrava (Czech Republic), Lollapalooza Berlin (Germany), and a sold-out headline show at the legendary Roundhouse in London. 
 
In December, the four-piece head to Santiago, Chile for Teatro Caupolicán on December 3, then to Primavera Sound São Pauloin Brazil on December 6 and Velódromo Olímpico in Mexico City on December 8. For more details, go to: https://atarashiigakko.com

From Tokyo with Love carries the meaning of magokoro, or heartfelt sincerity. Spanning ten tracks that move across funk, synth-pop and rock ballads, the album includes solo-featured songs shaped around the individual personalities of ATARASHII GAKKO! members Mizyu, Rin, Kanon and Suzuka, capturing both the group's collective unity and each member's individual charm. 

From Tokyo with Love is out everywhere now.
