Check out ROSTR's Coachella bill spotlighting the agencies that booked the acts for the 2023 edition of the desert fest (ROSTR bills itself as "the largest database of artist teams, including relationships among artists, managers, agents, labels and publishers").
Over at ROSTR's site, you can find nifty charts and graphs keeping score of who will have the most clout in Indio this year. It appears that Wasserman (41 acts) and UTA (27 acts) have the biggest footprints, with the former booking headliner Frank Ocean and Calvin Harris, as well as $uicideboy$ and 070 Shake, and the latter sending global stars Bad Bunny, ROSALÍA, The Kid LAROI, Burna Boy and Eladio Carrión.
One thing to note: Saturday headliner BLACKPINK was booked directly through YG Entertainment, not Wasserman. Shout out to Mark Williamson for doing the heavy lifting.
