PHOENIX – The Valley is getting a double dose of 1990s alt rock in the spring, when Noel Gallagher and Garbage team up for a tour.
The co-headliners will stop at Talking Stick Resort Amphitheatre (formerly Ak-Chin Pavilion) in Phoenix on June 11.
General public tickets go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. Arizona time.
Singer/songwriter Gallagher’s High Flying Birds and the Shirley Manson-fronted Garbage will be joined by Metric on most dates of the North American tour, including the Valley visit.
