Due to lead vocalist Chris Martin’s “serious lung ailment,” many Coldplay gigs in Brazil were postponed on Wednesday. Martin will need to recuperate for the next three weeks.
As part of their “Music of the Spheres” international tour, Coldplay was scheduled to play eight shows in Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo.
Martin, however, is required to rest for three weeks per “strict doctor’s recommendations,” as the band announced through Twitter.
There were online and social media posts announcing the news from the band. We hope Chris feels better after his medical hiatus and are eager to go back on the road as soon as possible,” the band said in a statement.
Please accept our deepest condolences, and know how grateful we are for your unwavering support and love.
We’re moving quickly to secure the new dates and will provide additional details in the coming days, the statement stated.
Chris Martin’s Severe Lung Infection Forces Coldplay to Cancel Eight Shows in Brazil.
Chris Martin, the lead vocalist of Coldplay, has been diagnosed with a “serious lung infection,” forcing the band to cancel eight scheduled performances in Brazil.
The band announced the delay in an Instagram post on Tuesday, writing, “With deep sadness, we’ve been obliged to postpone our scheduled gigs in Rio de Janeiro and So Paulo until early 2023.
Chris has been ordered by his doctor to relax for the next three weeks as he recovers from a severe lung infection.
Over $60 million was made from Coldplay’s Spheres tour concerts in July alone, making it the band’s highest grossing month ever.
The band became the eleventh act in history, based on reported Boxscore touring earnings, to earn $1 billion in career touring grosses in June.
The band has requested that their loyal following hold on to their tickets until the newly scheduled dates are announced, at which time they can receive full refunds at the point of purchase.
We hope Chris will feel better after his medical break and are eager to get back on the road as soon as possible.
Please accept our deepest condolences, and know how grateful we are for your unwavering support and love.
