Injury Details and Treatment

Phoebe Lunny suffered a neck fracture and is currently receiving treatment for an acute brain injury. The injury occurred during a recent tour in Australia and was initially misdiagnosed, leading to a delay in treatment. Doctors have advised against flying or performing for six weeks.

Lunny's Statement and Recovery

Lunny shared a candid post on social media, including a picture of herself in a hospital gown. She expressed her sadness at missing Coachella and the impact on their fans.

A Message of Community and Resistance

Lunny emphasized the importance of community and resistance, highlighting the band’s support for their fans and the role of music in bringing people together. She described the joy of seeing diverse audiences connect through their music, “mosh, lift each other up, chant, cry, scream in both parts joyful and angry.”

U.K. and European Dates Unaffected

Despite the North American tour postponement, the band’s U.K. and European shows, scheduled for late May, will proceed as planned. The band is actively working with promoters to reschedule the North American dates, with details to be released soon.
