Lambrini Girls Drop Out of Coachella Because Singer Has ‘Acute Brain Injury,’ Fractured Neck

Phoebe Lunny said doctors barred her from flying or performing for 6 weeks, forcing the band to postpone all upcoming U.S. concert dates.

  • On Saturday, April 11, the punk duo Lambrini Girls withdrew from Coachella 2026 due to a serious health scare for singer Phoebe Lunny, who was scheduled to perform on both April 11 and April 18.
  • Phoebe Lunny announced via Instagram on Thursday that she fractured her neck and sustained an acute brain injury while visiting Australia; doctors ordered her not to fly or perform for six weeks.
  • Lunny expressed disappointment about missing the show, stating, "If it was a broken leg, I would do a Dave Grohl and play it," referencing the 2015 concert injury but noting her neck and brain injuries make performing impossible.
  • Filling the vacancy in the Mojave tent on Saturday at 3 p.m., former White Stripes frontman Jack White will step in for the band, which was originally booked to support Justin Bieber.
  • Postponing all upcoming American concert dates, Lambrini Girls confirmed that scheduled performances in the UK and Europe will proceed from June onwards to allow Lunny adequate recovery time.
