They couldn’t believe it, but they wouldn’t not love it. Who’s “they?” We’re just the news, who’s for us to say? But in this case, the crowd in question was none other than the indie impersonators and intoxicated influencers of the infamous Coachella.
And what they couldn’t believe was the ever-impressing ensemble of The Tabernacle Choir performing on the festival’s third day.
“And on the seventh day, He raved,” echoed the autotuned voice of ‘Dj TabbyCat’ as he opened the Tabernacle Choir’s first-ever Coachella set.
With a flick of the wrist, the chorister began their 2-hour performance with an intriguing “We Thank Thee, O God, for a Prophet” dub mix.
“What can I say? It just came naturally,” DJ TabbyCat said to The Alternate Universe. “The deep, 808 Sub bass just blends so beautifully with a centuries-old organ and the dry, elderly vocal harmonies.”
With the missionaries on the ground trading molly for lesson plans, the Holy Ghost was hyping up the masses in no time.
“I loved it,” said up-and-coming artist Frank Ocean, also performing Coachella’s third-day set. “It gave me an amazing excuse to never, ever perform at Coachella, ever again.”
