In case you haven’t heard, the beloved Fiesta music festival known as La Semana Alegre is making a comeback this year, and now we know who will headline the stages. The Toadies, a Texas grunge band that soar to fame in the 90s, are coming back to San Antonio as one of the headliners of La Semana Alegre along with some festival favorites, according to a news release from Hemisfair.
The Toadies are the North Texas grunge band that most Texans know. Even if you don’t know the name, you definitely know the song “Possum Kingdom.” Search Toadies on Spotify and it’ll be the first song that comes up. They’re most recent contribution to the music was a cover of Kelly Clarkson’s “Since U Been Gone” for the Texas Wild album benefiting Texas Parks and Wildlife Foundation.
