Ahead of an indefinite hiatus, Brockhampton are performing one of their final shows during Coachella’s first weekend. Watch their set below and follow all of our Coachella 2022 coverage.
In January, Brockhampton canceled all of their previously-announced 2022 dates except for two shows at London’s O2 Academy Brixton in February and both weekends of Coachella 2022. “They invite their fans to come celebrate the end of an era with them at these final performances,” a statement from the band’s representatives read.
Brockhampton began after group leader Kevin Abstract posted a note on the forum KanyeToThe asking if anyone wanted to start a band. Initially named Alive Since Forever, the group later rebranded as Brockhampton. The many members who have been in the collective include vocalists Ameer Vann, Joba, Matt Champion, Meryln Wood, Dom McLennon, and Bearface, as well as producers Romil Hemnani, Jabari Manwa, and Kiko Merley.
In 2017, after the collective moved to Los Angeles, Brockhampton starred in the Viceland series American Boyband and released the three-album Saturation series. The Saturation II song “Gummy” was named one of Pitchfork’s “100 Best Songs of 2017.”
In 2018, Brockhampton made their Coachella debut. During their set, the musicians wore blue face paint. Kevin Abstract later said that the performance’s orchestral section was inspired by Kanye West’s work on Late Registration. Shortly after signing with RCA that same year, Vann was removed from the group after facing allegations of sexual misconduct. Brockhampton canceled a tour to “regroup” following a somber performance at Boston Calling, and, one month later, they made their public return on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. It was their late night television debut.
Later that year, Brockhampton returned with the record Iridescence—their first and only album to go No. 1 on the Billboard albums chart. In 2019, just months after Abstract released the Jack Antonoff–produced solo album Arizona Baby, the band released Ginger. Brockhampton’s last album, Roadrunner: New Light, New Machine, was released in 2021. The album featured contributions from Danny Brown, A$AP Rocky, A$AP Ferg, Charlie Wilson, and Jpegmafia.
