Corgan and Mendel’s love story began in 2013, culminating in their engagement on Mendel’s milestone 30th birthday in September 2022, followed by their marriage in the subsequent September. Their family continued to grow with the birth of their first child, Augustus, in 2015, and their daughter, Philomena, in 2018.

Celebrating Billy Corgan’s Remarkable Year of Achievements

This year has proven to be monumental for Corgan, marked by significant personal and professional milestones. The Smashing Pumpkins proudly released their 13th studio album, titled Aghori Mhori Mei, last August, which has been met with enthusiasm from fans and critics alike. Additionally, the band is gearing up for an exciting European tour set to kick off in July, promising to bring their electrifying performances to a wider audience.

In addition to his music career, Corgan has ventured into the podcasting world with his new show, The Magnificent Others, where he engages with various guests, sharing insights and stories that resonate with fans of all ages.

Adding to the excitement, Corgan is set to participate in the star-studded reunion event titled “Back to the Beginning” alongside Black Sabbath on July 5 at Villa Park in Birmingham, England. This highly anticipated concert will also serve as Ozzy Osbourne’s farewell performance, featuring a lineup of legendary musicians. Corgan shared with NME his enthusiasm about collaborating with renowned artists like Tom Morello and Adam Jones from Tool.

“Adam, Tom, and I have all come from similar backgrounds,” Corgan noted. “Tom had this idea that we should come together as ‘The Illinois Boys’ to perform, which I think is fantastic. I have a deep appreciation for Adam’s music and playing, and I’ve known Tom for around 30 years. It’s going to be an amazing experience.”
