Watch Björk perform accompanied by 800 drones at Coachella 2023

Clips of her performances of 'Hyperballad' and 'I've Seen It All' have now been shared by the festival

Watch Björk perform accompanied by 800 drones at Coachella 2023

Coachella has shared official footage from Björk's performance at the festival last month.

The Icelandic artist incorporated more than 800 drones into her live set, performing alongside an orchestra conducted by Bjarni Frímann. The performance had been due to be live-streamed by the festival, but was pulled from the streaming schedule just hours before the performance, much like Frank Ocean's headline slot.

In official clips of the performance, which you can watch below, Björk can be seen performing her 1995 track 'Hyperballad', as well as 'I've Seen It All', a 2000 song she recorded for the soundtrack to the film 'The Dancer In The Dark'.

Björk performed a 15-track set in all, taking in cuts from last year's 'Fossora' album, as well as classics like 'Isobel' and 'Jóga'. She closed the set with a performance of 1997 cut 'Pluto' from the album 'Homogenic'. It marked her third time at Coachella, having previously played in 2000 and 2007.

Coachella was fined $117,000 last month for breaking the city curfew three times during the festival's first weekend.
