Tonight Alive cancel international touring to “focus on mental and physical health”

Australian band Tonight Alive have cancelled all international touring for 2019, including an important US run of dates starting next month.

They are taking a break from touring in support of their latest album Underworld to “prioritise mental and physical health”.

Tonight Alive posted on Twitter:

“It’s with heavy but knowing hearts that we have come to the decision to cancel our upcoming US tour for Jan/Feb 2019.

“Our touring schedule over the years has been demanding and truthfully the makeup of our entire reality.

“Reaching the end of a particularly turbulent year we are seeing the need to address and prioritise our mental and physical health.

“So in the interest of personal well-being and professional longevity Tonight Alive will be taking a hiatus from International touring.”

They are “treating this as a matter of the heart, mind, body and soul”, and apologised for letting fans down.

“Despite the intensities of 2017/2018, we have continuously felt the love, connection and support from you all.

“Thank you for exploring and expressing yourselves so purely and fearlessly in the Underworld era.

“We are inspired by you and immensely grateful for this chapter of memories. Please be kind to yourselves.

“We won’t be far away.”
