Cardiff Castle was rocked to its historic foundations on Monday night as Garbage and Skunk Anansie delivered an unforgettable evening of live music at TK Maxx presents Depot Live at Cardiff Castle.
The two iconic bands have joined forces for a six-date UK tour, with Cardiff hosting one of the standout shows of the run.
First to take the stage were Skunk Anansie, fronted by the formidable Skin, who thrilled the crowd with an explosive set featuring fan favourites including Weak As I Am, Lost Not Found, Shame and Tear The Place Up.
The energy continued into the evening as Garbage took over headline duties. Led by Shirley Manson alongside Butch Vig and the rest of the band, the group treated fans to a deep dive through their acclaimed back catalogue.
