The Stagecoach Country Music Festival launched its 2024 edition on Friday, April 27, at the Empire Polo Club in Indio. 

The opening day was nothing short of exhilarating, marked by unexpected guests and a lineup that thrilled country music fans.

One of the highlights of the night was Jelly Roll’s high-energy performance. 

Taking the stage just before headliner Eric Church, Jelly Roll delivered a set packed with his biggest country hits.  

He surprised the crowd by bringing out rapper T-Pain for a collaborative rendition of Toby Keith’s classic Should’ve Been a Cowboy. 

Later, he was joined by country duo Maddie & Tae to perform an unreleased song titled Liar, further amping up the excitement.

Jelly Roll’s highly anticipated Stagecoach debut on Friday night lived up to the hype, with a high-energy performance featuring a mix of his own hits, surprise guests, and heartfelt moments.

Early in the set, Jelly Roll hinted at the excitement to come, telling the crowd he had “many special guests” lined up. The first to join him was his friend Ernest for their song Son of a Sinner. Then, he brought out country duo Maddie & Tae to sing the unreleased song Liar, adding that if everyone liked it “it might end up on the next album.”

Later in the set, the rapper delivered a powerful message of resilience and gratitude. “I’m here representing the underdogs, the ones who thought they never would make it in this life, that’s who I’m here for tonight,” he told the sold-out crowd.  He then brought his wife, Bunnie XO, and daughter, Bailee Ann, on stage, expressing his heart-felt appreciation for their unwavering support.

Addressing the fans directly, Jelly Roll acknowledged their instrumental role in his success. “Without you, I wouldn’t be able to live out a dream that so many people once told me would never come true. Now, my eyes are set on coming back and headlining Stagecoach.” This year’s Stagecoach is headlined by Eric Church, Miranda Lambert, and Morgan Wallen, and performances from Elle King, Post Malone, Willie Nelson, Hardy, and Bailey Zimmerman.

The night unfolded with a diverse setlist showcasing Jelly Roll’s musical range. From his own hits like The Lost and Halfway to Hell to a powerful cover of Brantley Gilbert’s Son of the Dirty South, he kept the crowd engaged. The crowd erupted as Maddie & Tae joined him for the new song Liar. Classic hits like Same A**hole.

The night wouldn’t have been complete without special guest appearances. T-Pain joined Jelly Roll for a high-energy medley that included All I Do Is Win, Buy U A Drank, and a crowd-pleasing rendition of Toby Keith’s Should’ve Been a Cowboy. Earlier, in an interview with Variety ahead of his performance, Roll said that he had been covering Should’ve Been a Cowboy for about a year now at most of his shows as a tribute to the iconic country singer.
