This Century have dropped off their tour with Hey Monday and Cartel due to frontman Joel’s vocal problems. Joel released a statement on his blog:
To our amazing friends and fans:
I regret to inform you that This Century will not be continuing the remainder of this current fall tour. I have been struggling with vocal problems for the past two months. I’m sure some of you noticed a difference just by talking with me and hearing me on this tour. After canceling two shows in a row with no vocal improvement, the band and I decided to call it off to avoid further straining and ultimately damaging my vocal cords. The decision seemed obvious after trying to sing while I was warming up last night. I will be seeing a vocal cord specialist who can give me some answers as well as a vocal coach who can help me get my voice back to (maybe even better than) where it used to be. This is an incredibly frustrating situation to be in and I just want to thank everyone for their understanding and support. We plan to get this all figured out and be back in action soon. I will keep everyone posted! Much love to everyone in the towns we’ve had to cancel on..we plan to make it up to you in some way!
Thank you to ALL of our fans for keeping us strong at a time like this. See you soon!
