Garbage begins Latin American tour after ten years

Garbage, the famous American alternative rock band, is currently on their first Latin American tour in ten years. The tour began on March 12 in Colombia and will continue through Chile and Argentina before heading to Brazil this Friday, March 21. The band is scheduled to perform in Monterrey, Mexico, on April 6 for the Tecate Pa'l Norte festival after an 11-year absence from the country. Lead singer Shirley Manson expressed excitement about returning to Mexico and participating in the festival. She noted the diverse lineup, which features artists across generations, including Olivia Rodrigo and Kings of Leon. Manson has mentioned that the band's music has created a strong connection with their Latin American fans over the years. The response from fans has been overwhelmingly positive. The band recently performed at the Festival Rec in Concepción, Chile, where around 360,000 people attended. In Buenos Aires, many fans were eager to see the band perform after a long wait since their last concert in 2014. At the Tecate Pa'l Norte festival, daily attendance is projected to reach at least 100,000. The festival will also feature well-known acts like Green Day, Massive Attack, and Justin Timberlake. Garbage, composed of Manson, Butch Vig, Duke Erikson, and Steve Marker, is set to release their new album, "Let All That We Imagine Be the Light," on May 30. Fans are looking forward to this new music, especially after the band has released several covers in the past two years.
