Grimes recently cancelled a few tour dates due to issues with hearing loss, and it looks as if the eclectic pop experimenter is still struggling with medical problems, since she just axed a whole batch of European dates as well.

In an announcement on Facebook, Claire Boucher revealed that she has called off her entire 14-date European run, which was scheduled to begin on November 13 and wrap up on December 1.

Over on Twitter, she wrote, "I will be updating shortly about which shows will be rescheduled." But it appears many will be cancelled outright.

She wrote that the cancelation was "for medical reasons." She didn't dish any more information than that, but we're guessing that this is related to the tinnitus she was suffering earlier this month.

11/13 Bristol, UK - Motion
11/15 Nantes, France - Stereolux Club
