Hot take
Goldenvoice is a powerhouse in the live music sector, responsible for iconic festivals like Coachella, Stagecoach, Camp Flog Gnaw, and Head In The Clouds, along with 2,000+ annual concerts across major West Coast venues. Their reach and influence are undeniable, giving artists massive exposure and fans access to elite, diverse events. But as a big-name promoter under AEG, their operations can sometimes feel impersonal or corporate, with some critics pointing to ticket pricing and exclusivity deals that limit indie promoter access. While their lineup curation is widely respected, Goldenvoice’s scale means independent artists and smaller promoters may find it hard to get a foot in the door. That said, their role in bringing subcultures into the mainstream and consistently elevating the festival experience keeps them at the forefront of the industry.
