Citing medical advice because of an illness, the 'Every Breath You Take' hitmaker has been forced to reschedule numerous upcoming performances amid his ongoing tour in the States.

AceShowbiz - Iconic British musician Sting has recently postponed several concerts and canceled appearances on his doctor's advice. His team made the announcement on Instagram.

The singer put on hold the gigs in Phoenix, Arizona, and Wheatland, California, originally scheduled for January 24 and January 26, respectively. These shows have been rescheduled to June 1 and May 28.

Additionally, a performance at the Cherrytree Music Company's 20th anniversary, initially set for January 25, has been moved to May 29. Fans are advised to retain their tickets as they will be honored on the new dates, and Sting extends his sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Sting, whose real name is Gordon Sumner, also had to cancel his appearance at the Bass Magazine Awards on January 23, where he was set to receive a Lifetime Achievement Award. This significant development interrupts Sting's 3.0 world tour, which had been his first extensive tour in the U.S. since 2019 and launched in September last year.

Sting's supporters flooded social media with messages of encouragement and hope for a quick recovery. The artist himself took to Instagram to thank his fans, writing, "Thanks so much for all of the well wishes. I am steadily improving from a temporary throat infection which has prevented me from singing, though I'm looking forward to resuming my performances and rescheduled shows soon. Love, Sting."

In addition to his tour dates, Sting was slated to perform at the FireAid LA benefit concert on January 30. This event aims to raise funds for the communities affected by the recent wildfires in Los Angeles County, featuring other prominent artists such as Billie Eilish, Lady Gaga, and Stevie Wonder. However, Sting's participation in this significant charity event remains uncertain given his current health condition.

This is not the first time Sting has faced vocal challenges. In October 2018, he canceled a concert with Jamaican singer Shaggy due to a vocal issue, issuing a statement at the time that mentioned he could "barely speak."

Despite these setbacks, Sting remains committed to his craft and looks forward to returning to the stage as scheduled.
