Ann Wilson, lead singer of rock band Heart, says she has cancer and the band is postponing the remaining shows on its Royal Flush Tour while she undergoes treatment.

Wilson said in a statement on Tuesday that she underwent a surgery to remove a cancerous growth and is recovering steadily, but that her doctors urged her to undergo preventive chemotherapy and take time off from performing 바카라in order to fully recover.바카라 That meant the rest of the shows on the North American tour will be postponed to dates in 2025.

바카라To the ticket buyers, I really do wish we could do these gigs. Please know that I absolutely plan to be back on stage in 2025,바카라 Wilson said in the statement. 바카라My team is getting those details sorted & we'll let you know the plan as soon as we can.바카라

All previously purchased tickets for the now-postponed shows will be honoured. The rescheduled dates will be announced in the coming weeks, according to the release. 바카라This is merely a pause. I've much more to sing,바카라 Wilson continued in the statement before adding, 바카라Respectfully, this is the last public statement l'd like to make on the matter.바카라

Over 50 shows at stadium and arena venues in dozens of cities across the U S and Canada are impacted by the postponement. Select shows were set to include performances from Def Leppard and Journey, and Heart has not announced whether those bands will accompany them at the rescheduled performances.

The band, led by Wilson and her sister Nancy Wilson on the guitar, cancelled the European leg of their tour in May, citing that the singer had to have "a time-sensitive but routine procedure for which the minimum recovery time is six weeks.바카라

Wilson posted on Instagram at the time of the European shows' cancellation, writing, 바카라I'm okay! Please don't worry. I do apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. It's certainly an inconvenience for me.바카라

The Wilson sisters, who made hits like 바카라Magic Man,바카라 바카라Crazy on You바카라 and 바카라Alone,바카라 have made music together since the '70s. The Rock & Roll Hall of Famers were honored with a lifetime achievement award from the Recording Academy in 2023.
