Sam Smith cancels more shows due to ongoing throat problems
By Chris Cooke | Published on Wednesday 6 May 2015
Sam Smith has been forced to cancel additional tour dates because of his previously reported throat issues. The poor boy is suffering from a small vocal cord haemorrhage.
Having cancelled some Aussie shows after being told to rest his voice last week, Smith has now told fans he is going to the US to see a specialist about his condition, and as such will have to postpone concerts in Japan and the Philippines too.
He sent the world an Instagram yesterday that declared: “Very upset about Japan and Manilla dates. I’ve just left Australia and I’m on my way to the States to see a specialist to see what to do from there… This is fucking horrid”.
Smith’s next scheduled show is now 15 May in Alabama.
