Lewis Capaldi scrapped a number of concerts in the UK due to problems with his voice.
“As you know, I have been struggling with my voice since touring in America and the European leg and much of this UK stretch of this tour has been difficult,” the singer told fans on social media. “I’ve had many URGENT check ups with various doctors and under each of their professional advisories I need to take it very easy.”
Capaldi cancelled shows scheduled for Dec. 2 and Dec. 3. He previously cancelled gigs on Nov. 28 and Nov. 30.
“I desperately want to be able to perform every show I advertise and put on for you all,” Capaldi said. “I’m so sorry to everyone that bought tickets to the cancelled shows. Genuinely hate letting ANYONE down.”
No announcement has been made about concerts scheduled for Dec. 5, 7 and 8.
Capaldi is set to join Niall Horan on a North American tour that kicks off in April and includes a May 6 show at Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena.
