Garbage were invited by Robert Smith to play this year’s Teenage Cancer Trust gigs while he was curator. They may also be at the 2027 shows…

…well one of them will as Shirley Manson will be the curator.

She explained “To follow in the footsteps of the great Sir Roger Daltrey and most beloved Robert Smith by being invited to curate next year’s run of TCT shows is one of the greatest honours that has ever been bestowed upon me.

I consider it an immense privilege to continue helping raise funds and awareness for our all too often forgotten teenagers in the UK who are living with cancer and the struggle that this entail… I hope to curate a fine week of entertainment, calling upon some of my favourite artists to join the cause. I am so looking forward to seeing it all come together at the Royal Albert Hall next year and I hope to see you there.”

This should be a great lineup.
