The statement said Stapleton apologizes “for any inconvenience this may cause. Hold on to your tickets for now, and stay tuned for updates.”

Stapleton will also be cancelling his June 11 at the CMA Music Festival in Nashville, Tennessee.

The singer-songwriter is scheduled to play a sold-out show at Wrigley Field June 29, when he opens for Tom Petty.
