Critically acclaimed DJ, producer and songwriter Dom Dolla closed the Sahara stage at Coachella on Saturday night to a packed crowd that included Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce and Ice Spice in the front row.
The trio were spotted dancing along to the set, while Dom’s performance featured exclusive edits and unreleased music, opening his set with highly anticipated unreleased track ‘GIRLS’
The highlight of his set came in the form of Nelly Furtado, who delighted onlookers with her surprise appearance and performed a mash-up of her legendary hit “Maneater” and Benny Benassi’s “Satisfaction”. She later returned to the stage for a remix of her and Dolla’s massive collaboration “Eat Your Man”, which they released to critical acclaim last year.
This wasn’t Dom Dolla’s first performance of the weekend - the Grammy-nominated producer also played a back-to-back set with John Summit on Friday night at the Outdoor Stage as their collaborative alias, Everything Always.
