Newly reunited emo veterans Sunny Day Real Estate have announced the cancellation of their upcoming second half of their 2022 run of US shows, scheduled to take place in December with the Appleseed Cast, due to injury.
Drummer William Goldsmith has sustained a broken bone in his "hi-hat hand" as a result of an unspecified accident, the band revealed in a Facebook post.
The statement reads:
It is with the deepest regret that Sunny Day Real Estate has to postpone the upcoming December shows. William unfortunately sustained a broken bone (on his hi-hat hand) in an accident. In order to perform to the standard you expect and deserve, we have made the difficult task to postpone the upcoming concerts to early next year.
This is not a decision that we have taken lightly and have exhausted all measures including the potential of an understudy proxy. All tickets for the current shows will remain valid for the reschedules and more information on everything will be forthcoming after the Thanksgiving holiday.
We wanted to give you as much heads up as we possibly could, so you can plan accordingly. William's doctors are happy with his progress and he is on track for a full recovery. Thank you for your never ending support. The first leg of this tour gave us renewed vigor as a band and we cannot wait to play for you in 2023……and beyond. More news soon.
The tour's first half got underway in September and October. They're the latest of many artists to cancel or reschedule shows due to health issues, with Belle and Sebastian having recently postponed their UK and South American tours after Rage Against the Machine cancelled their North American dates amid Zack de la Rocha's recovery from a torn Achilles tendon.
