Sleeping With Sirens cancel October U.S. headline tour

Sleeping With Sirens have just announced the cancellation of their impending DON’T LET THE PARTY DIE TOUR.

The band were due to hit the road from October 8 with Stand Atlantic and Heart To Gold, but frontman Kellin Quinn’s wife is due to undergo surgery soon and therefore he says that, “My place is at home until we can solve this and she is recovered.”

In a statement, Kellin writes: “Hey SWS family. Kellin here, my wife has been struggling with some health issues since the end of the PTV tour and for the entirety of my time off. She is now scheduled to have a surgery in the coming weeks and her recovery time after is uncertain.

“While we’re trying to figure it all out, I’m making the tough decision to cancel the upcoming SWS tour and my guest appearance with From First To Last at Furnace Fest (they will still be performing).

“My place is at home until we can solve this and she is recovered. I love you all very much and thank you for understanding.”

Following the news, Stand Atlantic announced a couple of their own U.S. headline shows in Chicago and Indianapolis – see both statements below.
