A few days ago, Jonny became seriously ill with an infection that required emergency hospital treatment, some of it in intensive care. Fortunately, he is out of danger now and will return home soon.
We were instructed by the medical team responsible for Jonny to cancel all commitments until he is fully recovered. With that, the European tour of The Smile in August is cancelled.
Refunds for headlining shows will be available on the shopping sites.
We wish to Jonny a speedy recovery.
