Luke Bryan sadly announced his cancellation of yet another show due to an ongoing battle with a “head cold,” as fans continue to send well wishes his way on social media. The latest affected show was the Brandon, Mississippi concert scheduled for Sunday, August 13th.
Last week, the “Country Girl (Shake It For Me” singer, 47, was unable to perform for the three-day Watershed Festival in George, Washington, which he was set to headline. Prior to that, the “Play It Again” hitmaker had to scrap more “Country On Tour” performances planned for Salt Lake City, Utah and Boise, Idaho due to his health.
On Sunday, Bryan wrote in an Instagram Story post for his 6.6 million followers: “Dear Brandon, MS I am regretfully going to have to cancel my show there tonight. Under doctor’s advice after taking 6 days off to heal I attempted to sing at both shows Thursday and Saturday and it was a struggle.”
The country superstar explained to his followers that the cancellations of his concerts were necessary in order for him to take a break and allow his vocal cords the opportunity to recuperate.
On August 6th, the American Idol judge gave an update on his condition, indicating that even speaking was challenging, much less singing, due to his illness.”This is such a frustrating weekend. ‘Shedders, I am sorry to let you down but I am not back singing—can hardly even talk still,” he wrote on his Story.
