When the weekend one Coachella set times dropped, we noticed that Lambrini Girls weren’t on them… and now we know why. They’ve pulled out of the festival, and rescheduled their North American tour, after vocalist and guitarist Phoebe Lunny fractured their neck, resulting in an “acute brain injury.” They write, “TLDR: happened in australia. misdiagnosed. late treatment. doctors orders are I can’t fly or perform for 6 weeks.”
Phoebe continues:
Best wishes for a speedy recovery, Phoebe!To all American ticket holders: it’s dark times, especially in the states. There are so many good folks who are carving out community and lifting each other up in the face of facism. Making space for subversion and resistance is at the core of what this band is about.
Seeing people of all ages, genders and backgrounds come together to mosh, life each other up, chant, cry, scream in both parts joyful and angry, is my greatest joy.
We have received quite a lot of messages re coachella, we are so gutted guys. We want to be there so badly. If it was a broken leg, I would do a dave grohl and play it. This isn’t something we are taking lightly and we are really sad. We hope and pray there’s some universe we get to play next year instead.
Because it is my neck and brain, our hands are tied for now, but I’m lucky and expect a speedy recovery thank fuck lol
Thank you for always showing up for us,
Phoebe
