Frontman Dan Reynolds is suffering from health concerns
Imagine Dragons have postponed their upcoming Latin American Mercury World Tour dates due to frontman Dan Reynolds health. The group shared the news on social media on Monday (Oct 17th) apologizing to fans.
“We are very sorry to share that we have to postpone our Latin America shows. In our 12 years as a band, we’ve never had to cancel a tour (and could count the number of shows on one hand). We hope you guys know how hard it is for us to postpone these dates, and we plan to make it up to you soon,” they share.
“Some of you may know that Dan has been struggling with hemorrhaged vocal cords and a nodule ever since the last tour leg, and he’s been warned by his doctor that going out right now could cause a rupture and irreparably harm his voice. Unexpectedly, he’s now also dealing with a fairly serious LCL sprain in his knee that will require a brace and some rehabilitation for some time. We just can’t give you the show you expect and deserve right now.
“We will keep everyone updated as we figure out new dates, and we are so sorry for those who made travel and other plans to see us. Refunds will be made available for those who can’t make the new dates.”
The group was set to begin the Latin American leg tomorrow (Oct 18th) in Colombia, Bogota. It was set to wrap October 29th in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. There’s no word on the fate of the two Mexico City shows on November 2nd and 4th will play as of press time.
The group is set to play the Middle East and South Africa in January and February 2023.
Imagine Dragons are currently supporting their double album Mercury — Acts 1 & 2, released earlier this summer via via KIDinaKORNER/Interscope.
