Jungle members Tom McFarland, Josh Lloyd-Watson, and Lydia Kitto gave Rolling Stone an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at their Coachella performance. The trio discussed the energy of the crowd, the challenges of performing in the heat, and their excitement about their upcoming album.
McFarland said that the Coachella crowd was “electric.” “It’s such a unique experience to play in front of a crowd that’s so into the music,” he said. “It’s like a giant dance party.”
Lloyd-Watson agreed, saying that the band “feeds off the energy of the crowd.” “It’s like a feedback loop,” he said. “The more energy the crowd gives us, the more energy we give back to them.”
Kitto said that the band had been working on their new album for about a year. “We’re really excited about it,” she said. “It’s a bit of a departure from our previous work, but it still has the Jungle sound that our fans know and love.”
McFarland said that the new album is more experimental than their previous work. “We’ve been experimenting with different sounds and textures,” he said. “We’re really excited to see how our fans react to it.”
Lloyd-Watson said that the band is planning to release the new album later this year. “We’re still putting the finishing touches on it,” he said. “But we’re really excited to share it with the world.”
Jungle’s Coachella performance was a success, and the band is excited about the future. Their new album is sure to be a hit with fans, and they are looking forward to sharing it with the world later this year.
