Garbage frontwoman Shirley Manson has expressed her profound honour at being appointed curator for the Teenage Cancer Trust's annual series of fundraising concerts, describing it as an "immense privilege".
Manson is the second guest curator of the week-long series, following Robert Smith of The Cure, who helmed this year's successful run in March, which notably featured Garbage among its performers. The prestigious event, initiated by Teenage Cancer Trust honorary patron Sir Roger Daltrey in 2000, saw him curate the artists until 2025. To date, the concerts have collectively generated over £36 million for the charity.
