At last year's festival, Sleeper Agent enjoyed a weekend's fame. But, a reporter who observed them wonders, what are the effects of the festival's fleeting trappings?
For a big swath of last year's Coachella, I followed around the young Kentucky rock band Sleeper Agent members as they it made their festival debut. They weren't an especially hyped or sonically au courant act, just a charismatic, road-dogging power-pop group on a slow ride up from the hometown dive circuit into national tours. They had a midday slot, a few powerful backers (like their manager, the son of music mogul Irving Azoff), and they seemed like a perfect band to trail to find out what it feels like to dip a toe into the warm pool of Coachella fame.
