Morgan Wallen had some “bad news” to share with fans in a May 9 Instagram post. Just over two weeks after he abruptly cancelled a show because of vocal issues, Morgan announced that he’d be postponing six more weeks of shows on his One Night At A Time tour. “After taking ten days of vocal rest, I performed three shows last weekend, and by the third one, I felt terrible,” Morgan shared. “I went in and got scoped yesterday and they told me I had re-injured my vocal chords and that I have vocal fold trauma.”
The country singer’s doctors advised him to go on vocal rest for six weeks. Unfortunately, that means Morgan has to cancel a series of upcoming shows, including tour dates, a performance at the May 11 ACM Awards, and various festival appearances. He did not specify which shows would be cancelled, but the tour is due to continue until the beginning of October.
However, Morgan assured his fans that his team is working on rescheduling the dates that he can’t make this time around. “We’ve almost got that done, but some are pending, so I’ll keep you updated,” he continued. He also assured festival ticket holders that he’d be making up for those appearances by “making it right” next year.
“[The doctors] told me that if I do this the right way, I’ll get back to 100 percent,” Morgan explained. “But they also said that if I don’t listen and I keep singing, I’ll permanently damage my voice. So for the longevity of my career, this is just the choice I had to make. I hate it, but I love you guys and I appreciate all the support you always give me. I’ll see you soon. I’ll be back better than ever.”
