Tito Fuentes Breaks Silence on Health Crisis as Molotov’s 30th‑Anniversary Tour Proceeds Without Him

Surgeries, an induced coma, plus hand damage are keeping the guitarist out of upcoming anniversary shows as he focuses on rehabilitation.

Overview

  • He detailed eleven surgeries and a near three‑day induced coma in new interviews with Playboy México and a podcast, calling it a turning point.
  • He reports rizartrosis in both hands from decades of playing, along with reduced breath and voice that prevent him from performing as before.
  • Molotov’s live lineup has featured Jay de la Cueva since early 2025, including upcoming dates such as December 4 at Buenos AiresMovistar Arena.
  • Fuentes says he has recorded some parts in the studio but may only return to the stage as a guitarist and plans to wait until he is fully recovered.
  • He links his relapse and self‑destructive behavior to personal losses and credits therapy and a visual art practice, including a Bankaool collaboration, with aiding his recovery.
