Garbage have canceled all remaining tour dates through 2024 due to an injury sustained by singer Shirley Mason that will “require surgery and rehabilitation to correct.”
“This is not a decision that we have taken lightly and we apologise to our amazing fans and supportive promoters,” the band wrote in an Instagram post on Thursday, August 1st. “We look forward to playing for you all again in 2025.”
In a caption accompanying the post, Manson wrote, “No one is more crushed about this than I am. You know I would push through if I could.” The exact nature of Manson’s injury was not specificed.
Among the impact dates were festival appearances at the Ohana Fest in Dana Point, CA and HFStival in Washington, DC. In Garbage’s place, DEVO will replace them at Ohana Fest, while Liz Phair will take their slot at HFStival.
