September 1st 2024.
The news of English Teacher cancelling an entire leg of their tour came as a shock to fans, who were eagerly anticipating their upcoming shows. The British band, consisting of Lily Fontaine, Lewis Whiting, Douglas Frost, and Nicholas Eden, had gained a dedicated following with their debut album This Could Be Texas, earning them a nomination for the prestigious Mercury Prize Album of the Year award.
With just 10 days' notice, the group announced the cancellation of all their US shows due to health reasons. This left many fans disappointed and frustrated, as frequent gig cancellations have become a common occurrence in the music industry. It's no wonder that English Teacher felt the need to apologize and ask for forgiveness from their loyal fanbase.
The tour was set to kick off in Dallas, Texas on September 11, but now all 16 dates across the US and Canada have been cancelled. However, the band reassured their fans that they will be back next year and sent their best wishes. This sudden change of plans has left many wondering about the health of the band members, but no further details were given.
Despite the disappointment, fans showed their unwavering support for English Teacher, sending well wishes and understanding messages on social media. The band's music has received widespread acclaim and they have been praised as one of the hottest bands to watch on the Indie music scene.
In an interview with The Agency, the band members expressed their excitement and gratitude for being nominated for the Mercury Prize award. They will be up against other talented artists such as Cat Burns, CMAT, The Last Dinner Party, and Corinne Bailey Rae. However, the biggest name to beat is Charli XCX, who has been dominating the music scene lately.
English Teacher's sudden cancellation of their tour is not an isolated incident in the music industry. Other artists like Chappell Roan and Catfish and the Bottlemen have also faced backlash for cancelling shows last minute. Some fans have expressed their disappointment and frustration, while others understand the need for artists to prioritize their health and take advantage of career opportunities.
In the end, what matters most is the well-being of the band members. Fans and critics alike have shown their support and understanding, and we can only hope for English Teacher's quick recovery and return to the stage. As Lily shared, the nomination for the Mercury Prize award is a huge honor for the relatively new band, and their recognition means a lot to them.
