American rock band Pearl Jam were forced to cancel their gig at London's O2 Arena on Tuesday night as singer Eddie Vedder has "completely lost his voice".
The band were due to headline London’s O2 Arena (having also performed there on Monday night), but announced that they were unable to do so.
A statement from the band said: "Pearl Jam are very sorry to announce that they will be unable to perform tonight's show at the O2 Arena in London. The band is working on rescheduling the concert date for mid-July.
"Singer Eddie Vedder has completely lost his voice. He is on vocal rest for the next few days in an effort to heal and perform the remainder of the tour dates.
"It's the first time ever having to postpone a show for this reason. Ed and the band are gutted thinking of all the folks who have travelled and made plans. Sending their biggest apologies out to everyone. And huge gratitude for all the continued support."
Attention London: Tonight’s show at The O2 has been postponed. Rescheduled date is TBD. Our biggest apologies and thank you for your understanding. #PJLIVE2018 pic.twitter.com/MLBrE5aRZ8
