Australian dancefloor scholars Hugo Gruzman and James Lyell of Flight Facilities just wrapped up their 12-date Trouble Tour, culminating in performances at the Yuma tent for both weekends of Coachella. On the heels of those standout festival sets, the electronic duo is still basking in the Southern California experience—today they’re unveiling their new single “Days of the Week,” featuring Aramis Johnson of Enumclaw. The track’s music video playfully pokes fun at stereotypical LA, nodding to the city’s guilty pleasures—Erewhon smoothies, plastic surgery—while skewering influencer culture. 

We asked the band to take us behind the scenes of their time at Coachella, where they had crowds clamoring to peek inside the Yuma tent each weekend—and where they had an unexpected encounter with Busta Rhymes backstage, among other exciting visits. Check out their pics and find an early look of their just-unveiled “Days of the Week” video below.
