Following their sold-out debut Australian tour, and ahead of their Coachella debut, Brighton’s own Lambrini Girls, the explosive duo of Phoebe Lunny (vocals/guitar) and Selin Macieira (bass), share their new single ‘Cult of Celebrity.’
From its opening guitar lick, the duo’s new song is a relentless, thrashing indictment of the dark underbelly and backdoor dealings of the world’s global elites that have been exposed in recent years. Speaking about their new single, the Lambrini Girls had this to say:
“The age-old tale of selling your soul to the devil has been a fabled account of high society for years. However, due to recent events coming to light, it turns out that the elite are very much actually, the devil incarnate, baby-eating, pedos. What a fucking surprise! They had no souls to sell in the first place.”
The single is also accompanied by a music video directed by London-based filmmaker and director Harv Frost (The Last Dinner Party, Picture Parlour).
Renowned as one of the best live bands to come out of the UK in recent memory, Lambrini Girls awed audiences at sold-out shows across Melbourne, Brisbane, Sydney and Perth throughout Feb, as well as headline festival appearances at OK Motels and a Nice Day to Go to the Club. May through to August will see them take their ferocious live show on the road throughout the US and Europe, making appearances at Bonnaroo, Barcelona’s Primavera Sound, Gothenburg’s Way Out West and Coachella.
Lambrini Girls breached the door to global rock consciousness with the raw charisma, barbed humour, and combustible shredding of their debut album Who Let The Dogs Out in 2025. Released as an opening musical statement for the year in January last year, the album permeated throughout the rock world, with the band gracing the covers of NOTION, Kerrang!, Paste, New Noise and Variety, which described the album as “a sleekly-produced firestorm of an album. Further acclaim followed from The Line Of Best Fit, Pitchfork, Teen Vogue, 10 Magazine and Frankie, alongside widespread radio support. They’ve heaped praise and admiration from the likes of Bikini Kill’s Kathleen Hanna, Iggy Pop and Sleater Kinney, and shared stages with IDLES, Amyl & The Sniffers & more.
