David Lee Roth made a surprise appearance at the Stagecoach Festival on Saturday night, joining Teddy Swims onstage for a performance of ”Jump,” Van Halen’s 1984 single.
During Swims’ Stagecoach set, the singer brought Roth onstage after performing his recent single “Mr. Know It All” and “Some Things I’ll Never Know,” both from his debut studio album I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 1), released in September 2023.

The collaboration marked the third consecutive festival appearance for the pair, with Swims having also brought Roth out during recent appearances at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, where he introduced the singer as “David Lee Roth from the best band of all time, Van Halen,” before the pair launched into “Jump.”
The recent performance took place amid a turbulent evening at Stagecoach, where high winds earlier in the night had forced a temporary evacuation of the festival grounds and prompted a series of schedule changes, including the removal of several artists, including Journey and Riley Green, from the lineup.
The evacuation was triggered by high winds that intensified across the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California, where the festival is held. An “emergency evacuation” message appeared on screens across the site, instructing attendees to “move quickly and calmly to the nearest exit,” while alerts sent via the festival’s official app directed festivalgoers to leave the area.
The disruption affected multiple stages, with the Mane Stage between sets at the time the evacuation notice was issued. Winds had been building throughout the day, with gusts increasing into the evening under a regional wind advisory.
Despite the weather, Swims’ set went ahead, with Roth’s appearance providing one of the night’s most high-profile moments as fans gathered following the festival’s reopening.
Stagecoach, one of the largest country music festivals in the United States, is held annually at the same site as the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival and draws tens of thousands of attendees each year.
