It was revealed a few weeks back that Tame Impala's call-up to the headlining slot came after Justin Timberlake was forced to withdraw from the April festival due to rescheduled headline tour dates.

Tame Impala will share headlining duties across the two weekends with US megastars, Childish Gambino and Ariana Grande. 

Other names confirmed for Coachella 2019 include The 1975, Weezer, Kid Cudi, Khalid, Solange and Janelle Monáe, as well as Aussie acts like RÜFÜS DU SOL, Parcels and FISHER.

Meanwhile, the band have teased new music in an Instragram post overnight - check it out below.
