Shawn Mendez announced on Wednesday the cancellation of his world tour to focus on his mental health, a decision that comes after he postponed several concerts in the US in recent weeks.
“I started this tour excited to play live again after a long hiatus due to the pandemic, but the reality is that I wasn’t prepared at all for how difficult it would be to be on tour after all this time,” explained the Canadian singer in a statement released on his social networks.
Mendes explained that after speaking with his team and health professionals, “it became clear that i needed to take some time” to “settle down and come back stronger.”
However, the musician assured that he will continue to record new music and that he intends to return to concerts in the future. “I know you’ve all been waiting a long time for these concerts and it breaks my heart to say this, but I promise that I’ll be back as soon as I’ve taken the right to heal“, said.
Mendes had already started his “Wonder” tour in Canada and came to play in California, although in early July he abruptly canceled several appearances in the US and with his announcement this Wednesday his planned dates for 2023 in Europe are also cancelled.
The news comes after other highly publicized cancellations in recent months, such as that of Justin Bieberfor a facial paralysis from which he has already recovered, or Adelewho canceled his announced Las Vegas concert residency with 24 hours to go due to “production delays.”
