Justin Bieber Teases Coachella Performance With ‘Speed Demon’ Video

Justin Bieber has shared a black and white video for “Speed Demon.” The clip, shot and edited by Rory Kramer, was filmed at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California, where Coachella takes place.

The singer teased his forthcoming headlining set at Coachella 2026 in a caption on Instagram, telling fans, “see u in april.” Bieber also shared photos of himself with his wife Hailey Bieber and their son Jack Blues Bieber at the venue.

“Speed Demon” comes off Bieber’s most recent release, Swag II, the follow-up to his July album Swag. The LP features 23 tracks and several collaborations, including with Lil B, Hurricane Chris, Eddie Benjamin, and Tems. Like Swag, Bieber announced the new LP a day before its arrival with a flurry of Instagram posts featuring billboards and other large-scale promotions of the album cover.

Swag was Bieber’s first album in four years. In the time since releasing 2021’s Justice, Bieber had been dealing with a series of career setbacks and health scares. He canceled his massive world tour in support of Justice following a Ramsay Hunt syndrome diagnosis, which left part of his face paralyzed. He also quietly parted ways with longtime manager Scooter Braun, who discovered Bieber on YouTube when the singer was quite young. Rumors have swirled about personal and financial tensions that led to the dissolution of their professional relationship.

Bieber was confirmed as one of the headliners of Coachella 2026 earlier this month. Rolling Stone learned the singer scored a seven-figure deal for the performance and worked “directly” with festival promoter Goldenvoice to negotiate the terms of his slot. Bieber’s Coachella set will mark his first performance in the United States since 2022’s Justice World Tour.

“It’s a groundbreaking move for a headliner, and it’s something he built entirely on his own,” a source close to Bieber tells Rolling Stone. “Between headlining Coachella and the success of Swag, it’s clear this is the start of an exciting new era for Justin — one where he’s fully in the driver’s seat.”

While Bieber has joined previous Coachella performers for guest appearances, 2026 will mark his first solo slot. He joined Tems and WizKid for a rendition of “Essence” in 2024, and performed “Peaches” with Daniel Caesar in 2022. The pop icon also performed “Sorry” with Ariana Grande when she headlined the music festival in 2019.

Coachella is scheduled to take place in Indio, California, on April 10-12 and April 17-19. Additional headliners include Sabrina Carpenter, Karol G, and Anyma.
