Fiona Kitschin, the ever-dynamic bass player for Tropical Fuck Storm, and partner to Gareth Liddiard, the band’s lead singer and guitarist, has been diagnosed with breast cancer.

The band have shared a short post on both their Facebook and Instagram pages with the following message…..

“Hey All,
We’ve hit a bump in the road here at TFS HQ as Fiona has been diagnosed with stage three breast cancer. She’s in good spirits considering but it means she’s going to need a lot of treatment. And that means we’re going to have to cancel all the TFS shows we’d planned outside of Australia for 2023 so we can get her all fixed up, shiny and new.
Sorry to everyone who bought tix to the upcoming US West Coast shows. You can get refunds at the place you purchased them
“.

The band have an upcoming 12″ EP, Submersive Behaviour due out on the 3rd of February, with pre-orders available here.
