Lambrini Girls’ Phoebe Lunny Details Arrest Following Warnings About Musician

Phoebe Lunny of the UK punk band Lambrini Girls has described being arrested after attempting to warn industry figures about another musician’s conduct. She recounted the incident in an interview for the podcast A View From A Bridge.

Lunny stated she received a call from police about a harassment case. Upon arriving at the station, she was arrested. The charge stemmed from her efforts to alert concert and festival promoters about a male musician she characterized as “really dodgy.” The details suggest her warnings were construed as harassment by the individual in question.

The story highlights a recurring tension where attempts to raise safety concerns within music scenes can backfire on those speaking up. Lunny’s account frames the arrest as a direct consequence of trying to circulate a protective warning. The band has previously addressed themes of misogyny and violence in their music.
