Jess Glynne has been forced to cancel a number of shows and festival performances due to vocal surgery.
The singer was unable to appear at last weekend's Isle Of Wight festival and has also pulled out of a support run with John Legend at his upcoming arena shows. Glynne said:
"I’m heartbroken. I'm so sad to miss these shows and festivals with and for people I love but the doctors have told me I need the operation or I risk damaging my vocal cords. I'm scared but I'm in with the best specialist who tells me I'll be back singing better than before."
Glynne has been referred to Dr Steven Zeitels of Boston’s Massachusetts General Hospital, who performed Sam Smith's recent surgery. Glynne continued:
"I realised I had a problem with my voice and asked Sam for advice. He put me in touch with Dr Zeitels who I met with last week. I won’t be able to talk for three weeks but I will be back singing in August and in plenty of time for both my big UK tour and my first ever American tour, both of which I’m massively excited about. I’d like to take this opportunity to say thanks to my fans who've been very supportive and gave me my first solo number 1 with Hold My Hand.”
Glynne's first US tour is due to be announced shortly and her UK tour kicks off in Cardiff on October 31. She'll be touring in support of her debut album, 'I Cry When I Laugh', which is set for release on August 14 through Atlantic Records.
