Stagecoach Festival
All three members mention the importance of attending California’s Stagecoach Festival in late April, with Russell saying, “I guess it’s similar to EDM in a way, where country music is the music but it’s also the lifestyle. That’s what sells you on it.” During the event, Cheat Codes hung out with Lee Brice and his band, and the trio also tossed back tequila shots with Guy Fieri. “It’s fun for us; we were having a good time,” recalls Dahl. KEVI, who has attended both Coachella and Stagecoach, believes the latter to be more family-oriented, observing that it’s much less about clout than “everyone having a good time together. It’s a different vibe, different energy.”
