Yogurtini’s Self Serve Frozen Yogurt National Franchises Getting Customers Ready for Coachella!

Posted by Yogurtini on Thursday, April 8, 2010

It’s the time of year when music fanatics like us pack up the car, grab the tent, and brace ourselves for a weekend filled with music festival mayhem and 100 degree temperatures. The Coachella Music & Art Festival started in 1999 and since then has continued to attract the world’s leading musicians and bands from all over the world, including such headliners as Daft Punk, Prince, Radiohead, and Paul McCartney. Coachella will kick off this year on April 16th and wrap up after three phenomenal days of performances on April 18th. Yogurtini co-founder Chelsey Nelson attends the event annually with members from her band, Yellow Minute, and friends from all around the world, and says “Coachella is a great place for me to meet up with my best friends once a year. I get to see legendary bands, and also get exposed to so much new music. I always end up discovering a new favorite band at Coachella, and fill up the playlists at Yogurtini with their music.”

The hip, music forward and eclectic tunes of Yogurtini Self-Serve Frozen Yogurt are greatly inspired right now by the many musicians who will take the stage this year at Coachella. 2010 Coachella headliners include Muse, Gorillaz, and Jay-Z, and we’re psyched for their edge-exploring performances.
