Tyla’s Injury Leads To Bad News For Her Inaugural Tour

Tyla’s Injury Leads To Bad News For Her Inaugural Tour

Sending her the best wishes for a recovery! Tyla’s injury caused her to cancel her North American tour. The South African singer was set to headline her first tour dubbed Tyla Tour, but announced that all her shows will not be happening anymore.

Tyla first opened up for Chris Brown’s Under The Influence tour in Europe. However, what put her on the map was when she rose to the top of the charts with her song “Water.” The song won the first award for Best African Music Performance at the 66th Annual Grammy Awards. The song peaked at 7 on the Billboard 100 charts and she also became the youngest South African and the first South African soloist in 55 years to enter the Billboard Hot 100. The song became the forefront single from her album Tyla.

On February 7, 2024, Tyla announced that she will be canceling her North American tour. She mentioned that she was “silently suffering with an injury that has tragically worsened.” The tour dates spanned from April to May and included a set at both weekends of Coachella. But fear not Tygers, Tyla is anticipated to make a full recovery to perform for shows in the summer.

Read Tyla’s full statement below.

“My Tygers,

All of you know that this moment you have all helped me transform into a reality, has been a life-long dream. I am so grateful and humbled by this past year and the way it’s changed my life.

I can never thank you guys enough for all your loving support, all the joy, the laughter, and the wins!

As much as this is something I would rather have dealt with privately, Its important that I share what I have to share with you today. For the past year I’ve been silently suffering with an injury that has tragically worsened. I’ve seen doctors and specialists with high hopes but the pain has only become more agonizing as has the severity of the situation.

I am absolutely heartbroken to have to say this but as of right now I won’t be able to proceed with the tour.

In consulting with medical professionals it’s become increasingly clear that continuing any festival or tour dates would jeopardize my long-term health and safety.

Words cannot describe my frustration at this pivotal point in my career. So please know that my team and I are working diligently on a spectacular show for you as soon as I am recovered and ready to return safely onstage this summer.

For North American headline dates, your tickets will automatically be refunded, for all other territories you will be contacted by your ticket provider regarding options, please keep a look out for new dates and information.

Thank you Tygers for understanding.”
