Punk Singer's Neck Injury Postpones Coachella Set

Lambrini Girls' singer, Lily Lunny, has announced a significant injury that will affect the band's upcoming performances. The 27-year-old revealed on Instagram on April 9th that she fractured her neck and sustained an acute brain injury while in Australia. This injury, compounded by a misdiagnosis and subsequent delayed treatment, has led to doctors ordering a six-week recovery period during which she cannot fly.

As a result, Lambrini Girls are postponing all scheduled U.S. concert dates. The band has also expressed profound disappointment over their inability to perform at Coachella 2026, where they were slated to play on April 11th and April 18th. Lunny cited the importance of community and resistance, for which the band stands, as reasons why missing such a platform is particularly difficult during these times.

Lunny assured fans that the decision to withdraw from Coachella was not taken lightly, stating she would perform if it were physically possible, likening it to Dave Grohl playing with a broken leg. However, the severity of her neck and brain injury has left the band with no alternative. They hope for an opportunity to play at Coachella in 2027. Meanwhile, other artists like Justin Bieber, Jack White, and The Strokes are still set to perform.
