On Sunday, April 20, girl group XG took the stage for Week 2 of Coachella 2025, one of the largest music festivals in the United States.
In Week 1, held on April 13, XG closed out Coachella’s largest indoor stage, the Sahara Stage, delivering a powerful performance. The hashtag #XGCHELLA – a mashup of ‘XG’ and ‘Coachella’—trended at #5 worldwide, and hit the top 5 trends in 11 countries and regions, including #2 in the United States.
For Week 2, the group returned with a different concept – trading their Week 1 white outfits for all-red ensembles, including COCONA’s bold buzz cut. Starting with ‘HESONOO + X-GENE’ and transitioning into their all-rap track ‘WOKE UP,’ the energy hit full throttle with ‘GRL GVNG,’ the single that made them the first Japanese artist to hit #1 on the U.S. Billboard ‘Hot Trending Songs Powered by Twitter’ chart.
CHISA hyped the crowd with, “What’s up Coachella!! You ready for Week 2?”, followed by MAYA, “Wow, being here right now feels so surreal. We love you Coachella! Let’s get crazy tonight!”
In their dance break ‘SHINOBI,’ 17 performers—including masked members and dancers—delivered a synchronized routine inspired by the Japanese concept of shinobi (stealth). For fan-favorite ‘LEFT RIGHT,’ the crowd joined in along to the beat.
The group continued with ‘TGIF’ and ‘PUPPET SHOW,’ followed by the Coachella debut of their second single ‘MASCARA.’ JURIN rallied the audience with, “All right Coachella! This is our part!!”
Their track ‘IS THIS LOVE,’ featured in Shiseido ANESSA’s global campaign, was performed in a special arrangement that transitioned from a soft piano version into the original. The set continued with ‘NEW DANCE’ and ‘SOMETHING AIN’T RIGHT,’ and closed with a band arrangement of ‘SHOOTING STAR’.
As the final act of Coachella 2025, which spanned six days over two weekends, XG delivered an unforgettable finale.
Following their performance, #XG_COACHELLA climbed to #2 on worldwide trends on X (formerly Twitter).
XG is currently on their first world tour, “XG 1st WORLD TOUR ‘The first HOWL’”, performing 47 shows across 35 cities in 18 countries and regions. This week, they’ll perform in São Paulo on April 24 and Mexico City on April 27, leading up to the tour’s grand finale at Tokyo Dome on May 14 – where they will also release their latest single, ‘MILLION PLACES.’
